Portable Network Graphic
PNG, an acronym for Portable Network Graphics, is a raster-graphics file format that utilizes a lossless compression algorithm known as Deflate. Designed as a royalty-free alternative to the GIF format, PNG has gained wide acceptance in the digital world. The format caters to three primary types of raster images: grayscale, color-indexed, and full-color images. In a PNG file, graphical information is stored efficiently in a compressed form.
Microsoft DirectDraw Surface
The DDS format, integral in OpenGL and DirectX development environments, is crucial for storing bitmap images of UI environments and textures. Leveraged for game model texturing and archiving textural arrays, it's instrumental in game and 3D software creation. It accommodates both compressed and uncompressed data, offering flexibility based on application requirements. Crucially, DDS' 'on the fly' texture block compression enhances next-gen console game development, improving application performance significantly.
