HDRI to PCT Conversion: FAQ
What are HDRI files?
SilverFast’s 64-bit HDRi RAW file is a TIFF that preserves a full 16-bit-per-channel RGB scan plus a separate 16-bit infra-red channel, giving 64 bits per pixel. The visible data stays completely unprocessed—no sharpening, gamma, or colour tweaks—while the IR map lets SilverFast’s iSRD (or compatible tools) later remove dust and scratches non-destructively, making it an ideal “digital negative” for archival film workflows.
What are PCT files?
PCT is an image file format associated with Macintosh QuickDraw, a graphics program developed in the 1980s as part of the Apple Macintosh operating system. The initial version of the format, called PICT 1, could store 8 colors, while the later developed PICT 2 supported 24 and 32-bit color images. In recent years, the format has decreased in popularity, being gradually replaced by more versatile formats.
