Description🔵 The Enhanced Metafile (EMF) file system began its journey of evolution when Microsoft included the Windows Metafile (WMF) format in the 1992 documentation of the Windows 3.1 Operating System. The WMF format was used to store collections of graphical drawing, the type peculiar with Windows positional graphics. However, due to some major compatibility issues, WMF was improved to EMF in the Windows NT 3.1 update. EMF formats stores coloured graphical data using the RGB colour scheme, CMYK is not supported. In recent times, the EMF format is incorporated into driver software for printers, thus assisting PCs to communicate graphical data to installed printers.
Technical details🔵 Unlike the 16-bit WMF format, EMF supports a wider device communication channel – 32-bit. Files with .emf extensions permit cross-compatibility between technologies that support positional graphics alone or bitmaps alone. EMF documents do not store data alone, but also include instructions on how constituent data should be handled.

Description🔵 .xcf (eXperimental Computing Facility) The .xcf format is the native image file format of the GIMP software (GNU Image Manipulation Program). It's used for storing the entire composition including layers, channels, paths, and other elements that are part of a GIMP imageThe XCF format is designed to preserve all information GIMP can contain about an image; however, due to its specific nature, it's not widely supported outside of GIMP. For sharing, images in XCF format are often exported to more universally recognized formats like PNG or JPEG.
Technical details🔵 The GIF (Graphics Interchange Format), introduced by CompuServe in 1987, is a bitmap image format with these characteristics: - Color Limitation: Supports only 256 colors, making it suitable for graphics or logos but not for detailed photographs. - Animation Support: Stores multiple images for animated effects, popular for looping animations and web graphics. - Lossless Compression: Uses LZW compression, reducing file size without quality loss, effective for uniform color images. - Transparency Support: Allows background transparency in images. - Interlacing Option: Offers an interlaced format for quicker loading on slow connections. - Standardization: Original version (87a) in 1987, enhanced version (GIF89a) in 1989 with animation and transparency improvements. - Aspect Ratio: Lacks inherent aspect ratio support. - Applications: Commonly used online for animation and transparency, less so for high-quality photography due to color limits. - No Audio Support: Cannot embed sound. - Metadata: Limited metadata compared to formats like JPEG. - Browser Support: Broadly supported in web browsers and image viewers. - Patent Issues: LZW compression was patented, leading to controversy and PNG development; patent expired in 2003. - File Extensions: .gif or .GIF. Mainly used for web graphics, animations, and simple art, GIF is efficient for images with fewer colors but not ideal for detailed or high-quality images.
