The compressed files can be opened as normal image files. Since version 4, the image data can be compressed by zlib instead. The XCF file format is backward compatible (all versions of GIMP can open earlier versions' files) and in some cases, forward compatible. For example, GIMP 2.0 can save text in text layers while GIMP 1.2 cannot.
The GNU Image Manipulation Program, commonly known by its acronym GIMP (/ ɡ ɪ m p / ⓘ GHIMP), is a free and open-source raster graphics editor [3] used for image manipulation (retouching) and image editing, free-form drawing, transcoding between different image file formats, and more specialized tasks.
Most graphics editing programs, such as Adobe Photoshop and GIMP, allow users to modify the basic blend modes, for example by applying different levels of opacity to the top "layer". The top "layer" is not necessarily a layer in the application; it may be applied with a painting or editing tool.
In version 2.1.4 FFmpeg supported (in its own terminology) the BMP pixel formats bgra, bgr24, rgb565le, rgb555le, rgb444le, rgb8, bgr8, rgb4_byte, bgr4_byte, gray, pal8, and monob; i.e., bgra was the only supported pixel format with transparency.

Seashore is a free and open-source image editor for macOS, similar to Photoshop/GIMP, with a simpler Cocoa user interface. [2] [3] Seashore uses GIMP's native file format, XCF, and has support for a handful of other graphics file formats, including full support for TIFF, PNG, JPEG, JPEG2000, and HEIC and read-only support for BMP, PDF, SVG and GIF.
Because the menu layouts are much closer to Photoshop's, adaptation from Photoshop is much quicker than GIMP. [7] Version 24.1 for Windows is with new installer for Windows 8.1 including 7 and new 10. Version 26.1 for Mac OS X 10.6+ is also available. It is based on GIMP 2.6.8 and needs X11. [8]
