The Picture Exchange file format, shortened PCX, with the .pcx filename extension is an image file format developed by ZSoft Corporation. It was initially released in 1985 as a lossless bitmap image format and for a time was the default file format for PC paintbrush. The format is now largely superseded by other formats given the target platforms for the software associated with the format are no longer in production, i.e. MS DOS and Windows 1.0.
SWF extension referred to as 'Small Web Format' is a file extension used exclusively in web applications integrated with Adobe Flash Technology. SWF files are used in multimedia, web applications, vector graphics, and ActionScript. Browser games frequently make use of SWF files.
FreeFileConvert uses tuned encoding for PCX to SWF conversions, preserving clarity while trimming file size. Finished audio streams instantly across phones, tablets, desktops, and modern browsers without extra tweaks.
Upload PCX files from desktop, tablet, or cloud storage, queue multiple jobs, and let the converter finish autonomously. Return whenever convenient to download synchronized SWF results on any device you rely on.
Process up to 5 files sized 1000 MB per batch without splitting queues manually. Mixed-format uploads convert together, producing consistent SWF audio with dependable progress tracking.
Later iterations of the format supported 24bit color palette, upgrading from the original 2 to 4 colors. Byte ordering used by the format is little endian ordering with three blocks; a 128 byte header, image data and an optional 256 color palette. Image data is stored in an orthoganal arrangement of scan lines ordered from the top to the bottom. Files can eiher be compressed using the simple RLE (Run Length Encoding) algorithm or uncompressed.
SWF files are used in Flash players, both online and offline. SWF files cannot be edited directly; however, users alter SWF files to a certain degree by editing the FLA files in them. SWF files are designed for publishing flash-based content on the web for animations, illustrations, and interactive applications.
