Version: Variuos Compression: None, RLE Color Depth: Maintainer: Specification: The primary graphics file format of the Atari ST system is the Electronic Arts Interchange File Format (IFF). However, a collection of poorly documented image file formats native to the Atari ST computer do exist as well. These formats are used primarily for storing still-images, animations, and screen dumps. The Computer Eyes Raw Data Format (.CE1, .CE2), Imagic File/Picture Format (.IC1, .IC2, .IC3), NEOchrome Format (.NEO), RGB Intermediate Format (.RGB), STAD Format (.PAC), Tiny Format (.TNY, .TN1, .TN2, .TN3) are bitmap file formats. The Animatic File Format (.ANM), Cyber Paint Sequence Format (.SEQ), DEGAS Format (.PI1, PI2, .PI3, .PC1, .PC2, .PC3), and NEOchrome Animation Format (.ANI) are animation file formats. There seems to be no official documentation for most of these formats. The document, "Atari ST Picture Formats", by David M. Baggett <dmb@ai.mit.edu> does seem to be the definitive reference.
