X Windows Dump Image (.xwd)

The XWD file extension signifies an uncompressed bitmap format utilized within the X Window System for UNIX and Linux environments. This format is adept at capturing GUI screenshots, from individual windows to the entire desktop, ensuring high fidelity. However, the uncompressed nature of XWD leads to larger files, which may be suboptimal for web deployment.

Sun Raster (.ras)

The Sun Raster file extension, also known as RAS, is a bitmap graphics file format developed by Sun Microsystems for use on their SunOS operating system. It supports black-and-white, grayscale, and color images with various pixel depths and includes simple Run-Length Encoding (RLE) compression. The format was widely used in UNIX-based systems and is supported by many imaging applications. The RAS format has largely been superseded by more modern formats but remains relevant for legacy systems and specific use cases.
