FAQ
PNT to PCX Conversion
What are PNT files?
PNT is the file of point features in the vector format of MiraMon, a geographic information system and remote sensing program developed in Catalonia by Xavier Pons. A point layer stores separate places on a map, such as wells, villages, survey marks, or measurement stations, each as a pair of coordinates, with an optional third coordinate for height. The descriptive data of the points, such as names, codes, and measured values, are kept in a database table in the DBF format, and a text file with the .rel extension describes the layer, including its coordinate system. Unlike the line and area layers of MiraMon, a point layer needs no file of nodes, because points do not connect to each other.
What are PCX files?
The PCX (Personal Computer Exchange) image file format is associated with PC Paintbrush, an image editing software initially designed for MS-DOS by ZSoft Corporation. At first, PCX files stored a limited range of colors but in time their range was extended to a 24-bit (true color) palette, and PC Paintbrush was adapted for Windows too. Though widely popular during the days of MS-DOS, the PCX format in time lost its appeal and was gradually replaced by formats such as JPEG and PNG.
