PIX ("PIcture in teXt", or "PIcture_teXt") is DOS software by Black Jec Soft (contact: Eugeny Bushmanov), and its native raster graphics format. It displays an image in text mode, presumably by customizing character glyphs.

The software includes a utility named PCX2PIX (possibly also called MPIX), for converting from PCX to PIX format.
