What is a GIF file?

GIF or Graphical Interchange Format is a bitmap image format that was introduced back in 1987 by CompuServe. Even though GIF supports only 256 colors, it has significant usability on the web because it is portable and compatible with different platforms. GIFs are mostly used on websites for banners, header images, buttons, etc. Because GIF is a lossless format with LZW compression method, the image quality doesn’t deteriorate with reduced image size. Since most web browsers can open GIF files, it is easy enough to view them. However, to edit the GIF file, you’ll need apps such as Corel Draw, Photoshop Illustrator, OmniPage Ultimate, GIMP, etc.

What is a CGM file?

CGM or Computer Graphics Metafile is a vector graphic file commonly used for CAD drawings. This file format is encoded with one of three different methods. The first one is the so-called binary encoding. It enables software programs to read all files quickly and efficiently. The second one is a character-based encoding that produces the smallest possible file size and saves storage space while allowing faster data transfers. The third one is a clear-text encoding that lets users read and modify the file’s content. CGM files are compatible with TurboCAD, ACD System Canvas, CorelDRAW, Corel PaintShop, Autodesk AutoCAD, Adobe Illustrator, AppleWorks, PTC Creo View Express, etc.
