A DXF file was created by Autodesk as a standardized format for storing complex 2D and 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) drawings in a single, standard package that can be used for seamless exchanging of data between different CAD systems.

The DXF format is plain text and allows CAD elements such as points, lines, curves, and other elements to be represented in an efficient manner that is easy to read by other CAD applications. The use of plain text does, however, cause the files to grow in size quickly when storing large and complex CAD drawings.

As DXF files are designed from the start to be an open and standard format, there are many CAD and 2D drawing applications that offer support for importing and exporting to the DXF format.

The PCX file format is the native format of the 1980s graphics application PC Paintbrush. Created by ZSoft, PC Paintbrush ran on the MS-DOS operating system and allowed the creation of raster bitmap images.

The file format allowed the storage of image data utilizing simple run-length encoding compression, which resulted in small file sizes. The format has been taken over by more modern formats such as PNG and JPEG, whose superior compression techniques make for more efficient file sizes.

As the PCX format is now classified as a legacy format, support for opening and editing PCX files within modern image editing applications is limited. We do, however, have a series of PCX conversion tools that will allow you to convert a PCX file to most modern formats.
