About formats

PIX is a raster image format originally developed by Alias Research (later Alias|Wavefront, then acquired by Autodesk) in the mid-1980s for use with their 3D animation and modeling software running on Silicon Graphics workstations. The format stores uncompressed 24-bit RGB image data in a straightforward scanline-by-scanline layout preceded by a minimal header containing the image width and height. PIX was the native output format of Alias's rendering engines, used to store individual frames of 3D animations and rendered stills from software that would eventually evolve into Maya, one of the most influential 3D content creation tools in entertainment history. The format's design reflected the priorities of high-end production rendering: raw speed for writing individual frames during batch renders, exact pixel fidelity with no compression artifacts, and compatibility with the hardware framebuffers used in professional compositing suites of the era. One advantage of PIX is its rendering pipeline heritage — the format can be read by tools throughout the VFX and animation industry, and legacy PIX sequences from Alias-era productions represent irreplaceable primary assets from foundational works in computer animation. The format's simplicity provides another practical benefit: with no compression overhead, metadata complexity, or container parsing required, PIX files can be read and written with minimal code, making them trivial to incorporate into custom rendering and compositing pipelines. PIX files are supported by ImageMagick, GIMP, XnView, and various professional compositing tools.

DOC is the binary document format of Microsoft Word, the word processor first released in October 1983 for MS-DOS and later becoming the dominant document creation tool worldwide. The format stores documents as OLE2 compound document files — a binary container with multiple internal streams holding text content, formatting information, embedded objects, macros, and metadata. The text stream uses a complex system of formatting runs, section descriptors, paragraph and character property tables, and style definitions to represent arbitrarily complex document layouts including columns, headers, footnotes, tables, floating images, tracked changes, and mail merge fields. The format evolved substantially through Word versions, with Word 97 establishing the binary structure that remained standard through Word 2003 and created the .doc files most commonly encountered today. One advantage is near-universal compatibility — DOC files can be opened by virtually every word processor and document viewer across all platforms, from Microsoft Office to LibreOffice, Google Docs, and Apple Pages. The format's rich feature support is another strength: DOC handles complex layouts, embedded OLE objects, VBA macros, and revision tracking that power enterprise document workflows. Although Microsoft introduced the XML-based DOCX format with Office 2007, DOC remains heavily present in existing document archives and continues to be produced by organizations maintaining compatibility with older Word installations.
