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.

Scalable Vector Graphics (.svg)

SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics, a versatile file format developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in 1999. This XML-based format is primarily used for defining vector-based graphics for the web, enabling smooth scaling and high-quality rendering on various display resolutions. SVG's scalability, interactivity, and animation support make it ideal for responsive web design, complex illustrations, diagrams, and data visualizations. Its textual nature ensures easy editing and integration with other web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, promoting seamless user experiences and streamlined workflows in modern web development.
