DCX is an image file format based on PCX. It supports multiple images in a single file, and may be used for fax images.
Contents |
[edit] Format
DCX files begin with a 4-byte signature.
Following that is a list of up to 1023 4-byte file offsets, terminated by an offset of 0.
Following that are the individual images, stored as embedded PCX files. The first one usually starts at file offset 4100 (0x1004).
[edit] Identification
Files begin with signature bytes B1 68 DE 3A.
