Convert SGI to PCX
Convert SGI images to PCX format, edit and optimize images online and free.
The SGI file extension stands for Silicon Graphics Image, a raster graphics file format developed by Silicon Graphics Inc. primarily for their IRIS workstations. This format, originating in the late 1980s, supports uncompressed and RLE-compressed data with up to 48-bit color (16 bits per channel for RGB) and an alpha channel. SGI files are widely utilized in 3D graphics, visualization, and high-end imaging due to their ability to store high-quality images and intricate details, making them an essential asset in professional graphics and animation industries.
The PCX file extension, standing for PiCture eXchange, is a raster image format developed by ZSoft Corporation in 1985 for its PC Paintbrush software. It became one of the first widely accepted DOS imaging standards, supporting palette-indexed images from 2 to 256 colors and later true-color (24-bit) images. PCX files use RLE (Run-Length Encoding) compression, making them smaller in size. Although largely replaced by formats like BMP, JPEG, and PNG, PCX was pivotal in early computer graphics and is still supported by various image processing software.
