Adobe Photoshop Document

Extension	.psd
Category	🔵 images
Programs	🔵 Adobe Illustrator CS6 🔵 Adobe InDesign CS6 🔵 GIMP
Main program	🔵 Adobe Photoshop
Description	🔵 .psd (Photoshop Document) The .psd format is the native file format of Adobe Photoshop, a widely used graphic editing software. PSD files can store an image with support for most imaging options available in Photoshop. These include layers with masks, transparency, text, alpha channels, and spot colors, among others. This format is commonly used by graphic designers and photographers for detailed image editing, as it allows for extensive manipulation and layering of images.
Technical details	🔵 The `.psd` (Photoshop Document) format, native to Adobe Photoshop, is crucial in graphic design, photo editing, and digital art due to its layered structure. This setup allows for separate editing of different image elements and supports transparency. PSD files can handle various color models (RGB, CMYK, Grayscale) and bit depths (8, 16, 32 bits per channel), making them suitable for both digital and print media. Key features include adjustment layers and filters for non-destructive editing, layer styles for effects, editable text layers, advanced masking, and Smart Objects for scalable edits without loss of quality. They also include color profiles to ensure consistent color across devices. Despite offering a comprehensive feature set, PSD files tend to be large due to lossless RLE compression, making them less ideal for web use compared to formats like JPEG or PNG. Compatibility with other image editors can be limited, with some software not supporting all features. Nevertheless, PSD remains a popular choice among professionals due to its versatility.

CompuServe Graphics Interchange Format

Extension	.gif
Category	🔵 images
Programs	🔵 Adobe Photoshop 🔵 Apple Preview 🔵 Corel Paint Shop Pro 🔵 Microsoft Windows Photo Gallery Viewer
Description	🔵 .xcf (eXperimental Computing Facility) The .xcf format is the native image file format of the GIMP software (GNU Image Manipulation Program). It's used for storing the entire composition including layers, channels, paths, and other elements that are part of a GIMP image. The XCF format is designed to preserve all information GIMP can contain about an image; however, due to its specific nature, it's not widely supported outside of GIMP. For sharing, images in XCF format are often exported to more universally recognized formats like PNG or JPEG.
Technical details	🔵 The GIF (Graphics Interchange Format), introduced by CompuServe in 1987, is a bitmap image format with the following characteristics: - Color Limitation: Supports only 256 colors, making it suitable for graphics or logos but not for detailed photographs. - Animation Support: Stores multiple images for animated effects, popular for looping animations and web graphics. - Lossless Compression: Uses LZW compression, reducing file size without quality loss, effective for uniform color images. - Transparency Support: Allows background transparency in images. - Interlacing Option: Offers an interlaced format for quicker loading on slow connections. - Standardization: Original version (87a) in 1987, enhanced version (GIF89a) in 1989 with animation and transparency improvements. - Aspect Ratio: Lacks inherent aspect ratio support. - Applications: Commonly used online for animation and transparency, less so for high-quality photography due to color limits. - No Audio Support: Cannot embed sound. - Metadata: Limited metadata compared to formats like JPEG. - Browser Support: Broadly supported in web browsers and image viewers. - Patent Issues: LZW compression was patented, leading to controversy and PNG development; patent expired in 2003. - File Extensions: .gif or .GIF. Mainly used for web graphics, animations, and simple art, GIF is efficient for images with fewer colors but not ideal for detailed or high-quality images.
