[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Graphics Storage Formats

dml@rabbit1.UUCP (David Langdon) (08/05/88)

I am trying to gather information on DOS based graphics image formats
and popularity/standards. Basically, I have the following questions:

1) What DOS based graphics storage formats are there? I know of GIF,
   PIF, TIFF; but not others.

2) Is there an accepted standard format that most applications will
   read?

3) What is the internal storage format for the different types of
   graphics image files? (Pointers to companies/documents should be
   sufficient)

4) Is there anything else I should be looking into - we want to be
   able to generate graphics image files for one of our applications.

Email responses please .. if requested and/or enough info is received,
I will post results to the net.

Thanks .. Dave
