Format Details
TGA
TGA (Targa Image) is a raster image format developed by Truevision in 1984, supporting 8, 16, 24, and 32-bit color with an optional alpha channel for transparency. It uses optional RLE compression and was a leading format in early video production and 3D rendering due to its straightforward structure and alpha support. TGA remains in active use today in game development, digital compositing, and animation pipelines.
BMP
BMP (Bitmap) is one of the oldest raster image formats, developed by Microsoft for the Windows operating system. It stores pixel data in an uncompressed or minimally compressed form, resulting in large file sizes but perfect lossless quality. BMP is widely supported across Windows applications and is commonly used as an intermediate format in image processing workflows.
