IFF File Type

The IFF file extension is a container for multiple media files that were created by the Interchange File Format. The IFF file format is used in games, movies, and other multimedia applications. IFF files are composed of a header followed by a series of data chunks in which each chunk contains an entry point to the data stream and metadata about the chunk. IFF was originally developed by Williams Electronics / Electro-Magic for use with their Mixed Media Game cartridge (MMC) and later became popular among game developers and computer graphics artists.

PNG File Type

PNG is an acronym for 'Portable Network Graphic'. PNG is a lossless compression image file format developed to replace the older, GIF file format. When you open up a PNG file, you will see that it looks like any other graphic. The difference between JPEG and PNG files is that the pixel color information is stored in 8 bits per pixel (giving 4 levels of grayscale) rather than 24 bits per pixel (giving 16.7 million levels of grayscale).
