SGI

Silicon Graphics Image File

A .sgi extension file saves images in the original Silicon Graphics Image format. These files are originated from the library of SGI images that were there on every Silicon Graphics machine. SGI files are also referred to as RGB, IRIS or Irix RGB., .sgi image files can be saved in 8-bit color, 16-bit or 32-bit color. GIMP has the compatibility to read and write .sgi extension files and also has a dialog box that pops up to help select the compression type. The preferred compression is RLE and while it reduces the file size, it is advisable to check once it is done to ensure that the file size is indeed reduced as sometimes the size is more than the actual file size.

PS

PostScript File

The .ps filename extension refers to files authored using the open postscript programming language. The postscript format was developed and first released by Adobe Systems in 1982. It is a dynamically typed object oriented page description language format with graphics primitives that make it appropriate for use in desktop publication workflows. The postscript format quickly became the default language driving high resolution laser printers used by prepress service bureaus because it is well suited to describing page layouts with great precision. Several applications both proprietary and open source can allow you to open postscript files, others such as PDF creator or Adobe distiller will convert the postscript file into a PDF file for viewing. Postscript file editing can also be done with simple text editors given the standard character set used in the language.

SGI is a generic raster image file format that stores black and white, gray scale and color images. Images in the SGI format are generic bitmap images that have the capacity to store 8 to 32 bits per pixel. The file size of the images can be compressed with the Run-length encoding (RLE) technique. The .sgi extension files begin with a 512 byte header that is fixed and is followed by the pixel data. There is a scan-line table in case of compressed images with the compressed pixel data following the table. The scan-line offset table indicates the start of every scan line in the data of a compressed image. Lots of bit planes, alpha channel data and / or color maps may be included in the files with .sgi extension. Contrary to the top-down order followed by other formats, the pixel data in .sgi extension file follows the bottom-up order.

Postscript files are typically human readable files written in plain text. The ASCII or UTF-8 character encoding are the character sets used to form postscript files. Most postscript files can render directly on printer spoolers, and often begin with '%!' so that the printer postscript interpreter interprets the file as a postscript file rather than a plain text file.
