It’s all about graphics file formats. As any graphics programmer or illustrator knows, there are many different file formats used for storing graphics data — data such as vector graphics, ray tracing, black-and-white photographs, truecolor images, animation data, motion video, and multimedia data.
Book Description
The Encyclopedia of Graphics File Formats is the definitive reference to all of these formats–from major, standardized formats, like GIF, TIFF, TGA, and BMP, to newer or specialized formats, like PNG, SPIFF, SGI YAODL, and Facesaver.
