PNG files are a widely used graphics file format used in areas where high-quality images (often with transparency) are required while also retaining a small file size. They are one of the most common formats of file used for web and print mediums and are particularly useful for logos, icons, and other images where multi-level transparency is desired.

The format itself was created in the 1990's with the main aim of storing computer graphics in a high-quality format while minimising the required storage space. The longer-term aim was to displace the GIF file format and make PNG the number one format for non-lossy, high-quality image formats on the then-burgeoning world wide web.

One of the selling points of the PNG format is its support for multiple levels of transparency, making it superior to the GIF format, which can only handle a single level of transparency. Also, like GIFs, the PNG format supports palletizing image colors down to 256 or 16 colors to help reduce the file size of the PNG.

A DPX file is an image file format whose main users are those in the TV and movie industries. The DPX format can store video frames or single static images as uncompressed image data, ensuring no loss in quality.

As the data within a DPX file is stored uncompressed, this leads to a very large file size and limits its appeal to other uses. A video animation sequence can be achieved by storing each frame as a separate DPX file. As well as storing image data, a DPX file will also contain other important metadata, such as timing and color information.

Despite its capabilities, the DPX format has been replaced by more modern video and image formats, such as PNG and JPEG for images and EXR for video. DPX files can still be used with some modern image editing applications.
