FAQ
CT1 to PIC Conversion
What are CT1 files?
CT1 is a raster image file extension used for CALS Type 1 files, defined by the U.S. Department of Defense Computer-aided Acquisition and Logistic Support (CALS) initiative in the MIL-R-28002 specification, and later incorporated into MIL-STD-1840 for the exchange of technical documentation. A file of this type contains a single black-and-white page, stored as a bilevel image compressed with the CCITT Group 4 (ITU-T T.6) method, which made it well suited to scanned engineering drawings, manuals, and archival paper documents. The page is preceded by a fixed-length text header that identifies the source document, the figure, the document class, the pixel dimensions, the page orientation, and the scanning density. The format supports no color or grayscale, and remains in use in legacy technical document archives.
What are PIC files?
The PIC file format was first associated with PC Paint and later on with its developed version, Pictor Paint. It was one of the first formats accepted as a standard under the DOS platform, and it was developed by John Bridges. PIC files represent raster images, which can use an up to 24-bit color range. The advanced versions of PC Paint and Pictor Paint support image compression and the PIC files created using these programs are device-independent.
