A .xcf extension file is a Raster image file format that is used by the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freeware image editing software application that has features similar to Adobe Photoshop. These features include the easy selection of layers, channels, transparencies, paths and guides. It facilitates saving of the edited versions of the images and storing the current position at the time of saving, layers, channels, paths and other items used at the time of editing the image. The image data is saved in the file by compressing it with the use of a simple RLE algorithm, and all those settings can be accessed again to edit the image when the XCF file is opened in a compatible image editor.
The .pdf file format extension was developed by Adobe systems in 1993 as a means of presenting documents in a consistent manner across different platforms, hardware, operating systems, and applications. The format was not released as an open source document format until 2008, though minimal proprietary technologies still controlled by Adobe Systems exist in the format. Every .pdf document carries with it the necessary meta information required to properly reconstruct the text, fonts, and graphics used to produce the document. This ensures that documents will be viewed in exactly the same way the author intended regardless of the device used to open the document. From conception to date, Adobe Systems has continued to support the format adding features with every iteration of the standard including hardened algorithms for document encryption and privacy. Today, many freely available readers exist allowing you to open and view .pdf documents and create or convert other file formats such as .jpeg and .doc into .pdf documents.

The XCF format is both backwards and forward compatible which means that files created in a new version can be opened in all older versions of GIMP and vice versa. Generally, an XCF file describes a stack of layers and channels on a canvas that is just an abstract rectangular viewport for the layers and channels.
