Extension	.xcf
Category	🔵 images
Programs	🔵 CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X7 🔵 CinePaint 🔵 Seashore 🔵 KolourPint
Main program	🔵 GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP)
Description	🔵 .xcf (eXperimental Computing Facility) The .xcf format is the native image file format of the GIMP software (GNU Image Manipulation Program). It is used to store 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 is 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 `.xcf` file format, native to GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), supports advanced image editing. Key features include: - Layer Support: Maintains multiple image layers for complex editing. - Channel and Path Storage: Stores alpha channels for transparency and vector-based paths. - Text Layers: Supports editable text layers, preserving text quality during adjustments. - Compression: Uses RLE compression to reduce file size without data loss. - Undo History: Can store undo history for reverting changes after reopening. - Guides and Grids: Includes non-printing alignment guides and grids. - Color Profiles: Ensures consistent color reproduction across devices. - Resolution Information: Retains resolution data, crucial for printing. - Extensibility: Designed for future enhancements while maintaining backward compatibility. - Compatibility: Best supported by GIMP; limited support in other editors. - File Size: Generally larger than compressed formats like .jpg or .png due to additional information. - Non-Destructive Editing: Allows edits without losing original image data. - No Quality Loss: Preserves quality across editing sessions, unlike lossy formats. - Layer Effects and Filters: Stores adjustable layer effects and filters. Ideal for intermediate storage of editable images, especially complex ones, the `.xcf` format is often exported to formats like .jpg, .png, or .tiff for final distribution.

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.
