.PCD File

The pcd file extension is used for images captured in Kodak's multi-resolution format called Photo Compact Disc graphic file.

PCD is a proprietary Kodak format. Up to 5 levels of quality are inside the PCD format ranging from thumbnail (lowest quality, small size files) to 18 MB files for high quality use.

The Kodak Precision Color Management System (KPCMS) lets you control the color mode and display of Photo CD images by specifying profiles for the source film and the destination output device.

Note: You can open PCD files in one of the resolutions in Adobe Photoshop but cannot save files in the Photo CD format.

MIME types:
image/pcd

How to open:
