PI to FLIF Conversion: FAQ
What are PI files?
PI is an obsolete file format associated with Blazing Paddles, a graphics program created for Commodore computers. This brand was highly popular in the 1980s, with the Commodore 64 model being the best-selling home computer worldwide until this day. The PI extension can also be attached to images created or edited using Degas or Degas Elite, two image processing programs also released in the 1980s, but for Atari computers.
What are FLIF files?
FLIF (Free Lossless Image Format) is a royalty-free format launched at the end of 2015 as "work in progress" with the aim of offering a better alternative for storing lossless images than the existing PNG, WebP, BPG, JPEG2000 and JPEG XR. FLIF provides similar image quality as the other extensions, but in a file size than can be up to 74% smaller. The new format uses a form of the Adam7 algorithm for compressing images, offering progressive interlacing that allows users to obtain a reasonable encoding of an image even from a partial download.
