About formats

TXT (Plain Text) is the most fundamental digital document format, storing unformatted text as a sequence of character codes with no embedded styling, layout instructions, or metadata beyond the characters themselves. The foundation of plain text computing traces to the ASCII standard published in 1963 by the American Standards Association (now ANSI), which defined 128 character codes including uppercase and lowercase Latin letters, digits, punctuation, and control characters. Modern plain text files typically use UTF-8 encoding, a variable-width Unicode scheme that encompasses virtually every writing system worldwide while maintaining backward compatibility with ASCII. Line endings vary by platform convention — LF on Unix/macOS, CR+LF on Windows — though most contemporary tools handle both transparently. One advantage is absolute universality — TXT files can be created, read, and edited on every computing device ever manufactured, from 1960s mainframes to modern smartphones, without any specialized software. The minimal overhead is another core strength: plain text carries zero formatting baggage, making TXT files ideal for configuration files, log output, data interchange, source code, scripts, and any context where content must be processed programmatically. Plain text serves as the substrate for structured formats like CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, and Markdown, and remains the input/output medium for virtually all command-line tools and programming environments. Despite decades of richer alternatives, TXT endures as the one truly universal document format.

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple's branded implementation of the HEIF (High Efficiency Image File Format) standard that uses HEVC (H.265) as its image compression codec. Apple adopted HEIC as the default photo format on iPhones and iPads starting with iOS 11 in September 2017, replacing JPEG for newly captured images. HEIC files store photographs compressed with the intra-frame coding mode of the HEVC video codec, which applies sophisticated prediction, transform, and entropy coding techniques that achieve roughly 50% better compression than JPEG at equivalent visual quality. The ISOBMFF (ISO Base Media File Format) container supports multiple images in a single file, enabling Live Photos (a still plus a short video clip), burst sequences, depth maps from dual-camera systems, and HDR gain maps that allow compatible displays to render extended dynamic range. HEIC also stores alpha channels, auxiliary images for computational photography features (portrait mode depth data, semantic segmentation masks), and comprehensive EXIF/XMP metadata. One advantage is storage efficiency: iPhones shooting HEIC use roughly half the storage of equivalent JPEG captures with no visible quality loss, a significant benefit on devices where storage is finite and photos accumulate rapidly. The format's integration with Apple's ecosystem is another key strength — HEIC files are natively supported across macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and iCloud Photos, and automatic JPEG transcoding during file sharing ensures compatibility when sending photos to non-Apple devices. HEIC can also be opened by Windows 10/11 (with codec), GIMP, ImageMagick, and Adobe Lightroom.
