PiCture eXchange (PCX) is one of the oldest raster image formats for personal computers, created for the ZSoft PC Paintbrush program on DOS. PCX stores images using simple run-length encoding, a lossless scheme that works well on flat-coloured graphics but poorly on photographs. It was widely used by early scanners and fax software before TIFF and PNG replaced it.

 

How to open a PCX file?

Modern operating systems no longer open PCX by default. Viewers that still read it include IrfanView on Windows and XnView MP.

 

For editing, GIMP and Adobe Photoshop both import PCX images. Since PCX is a legacy format that many programs have dropped, the safest long-term move is to convert your files — use our PCX to JPG converter.
