Convert PIX to PCDS
Convert PIX images to PCDS format, edit and optimize images online and free.
The PIX file extension stands for Alias/Wavefront Run-Length Encoding (RLE) Image Format. Developed by Alias Systems Corporation (later acquired by Autodesk), it was designed for storing bitmap images in PowerAnimator and Alias 3D software. This format was instrumental in creating high-resolution 3D models and animations for movies and video games in the 1990s. The RLE compression minimized file size without compromising image quality, optimizing performance for graphics-heavy tasks. Although its usage has declined in favor of more versatile formats, PIX played a significant role in the evolution of computer graphics technology.
The PCDS file extension stands for Photo CD Multi-resolution Bitmap Graphics, a format developed by Kodak in 1991 for digitizing and storing high-quality images on CDs. PCDS files were used to store scanned prints and slides, leveraging proprietary encoding to maintain image quality. This format was part of Kodak's Photo CD system, which aimed to provide a reliable method for archiving and accessing digital photographs.
