File Extension | PIX |
Full Name | Standard Windows Bitmap Image (also OS/2) |
PIX is the file extension used to store bitmap graphics images. The data in such a file is organized in an array of points that make up the image. Their number tells about the resolution of the image. Low-resolution bitmap images are less prone to scaling (loss of quality).
File Extension | JPEG |
Full Name | JPEG Bitmap Image Format |
Files with the .JPEG extension contain lossy compressed images recorded in a standardized format created by the Joint Photographic Experts Group – JPEG for short - as well as metadata of this image, such as space and color profile, as well as image dimensions. The color scale of the image can be up to 24-bit.
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "PIX") to another (referred to as "JPEG"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, PIX file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format PIX to format JPEG becomes essential.
So, how can we perform PIX to JPEG file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format PIX and transforming it into format JPEG. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of PIX to JPEG converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of PIX to JPEG. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the PIX file:
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
