Personalized Image Capture Technology (.pict)

The PICT file extension, developed by Apple in 1984, stands for Personalized Image Capture Technology. It was originally used by the QuickDraw graphics library on Macintosh computers to interchange both vector and bitmap graphics. PICT files have since been deprecated in favor of formats like PDF, but they were crucial for graphics exchange in early Mac applications.

Monochrome Bitmap (.mono)

The MONO file extension stands for "Monochrome Bitmap" and is used for storing raw bi-level bitmap images, which are essentially black-and-white images without any color or grayscale. This format is primarily utilized in applications requiring simple, high-contrast images, such as fax transmissions and certain types of document scanning. The MONO format, characterized by its least-significant-byte first order, has been supported by various image processing tools. Its history traces back to early bitmap graphics needs, emphasizing simplicity and efficiency in image storage and processing.
