Name PIC (Yanagisawa)
Ontology
Extension(s) .pic, .jpc

PIC is a raster graphics format that was used mainly in Japan. It was apparently developed by the same "Yanagisawa" person who developed Pi and PIC2.

Contents

Disambiguation

See PIC for more formats with that name.

Some file format lists include a format named Japan PIC or Japan Picture, with extension .jpc. Those are probably references to this format. As evidence, the DISPLAY program listed in the Software section calls this format "Japan PIC (.jpc)".

Identification

Files begin with ASCII "PIC". Note that this does not distinguish them from Psion PIC.
