| Description | The PCT file format, also known as Macintosh Picture format, is a graphics file format used by Macintosh computers. It was developed by Apple as a way to store and share high-quality graphics and images. |
| Technical details | PCT files can be either in a compressed or uncompressed format, and they can store both bitmap and vector images. They support up to 24-bit color depth and can include alpha channels for transparency. PCT files also support various color models, including RGB, CMYK, HSB, and Lab. PCT files can be opened and edited using a variety of software programs, including Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Preview. They can also be converted to other image file formats, such as JPEG or PNG, using file conversion tools. |
