- --------I-PIC(PRO)--------------------------
-
- This format description applies to both PIC and MSK files created with
- the Autodesk Animator Pro package. The file begins with a 64-byte header
- defined as follows:
-
- Offset Length Name Description
- 0000h 1 dword The size of the whole file including the size
- of this header.
- 0004h 1 word ID=9500h
- 0006h 1 word Width of the image
- 0008h 1 word Height of the image
- 000Ah 1 word X offset of image
- 000Ch 1 word Y offset of image
- 000Eh 1 dword User ID, set to zero
- 0012h 1 byte Bits per pixel (8 for PIC, 1 for MSK)
- 0013h 45 byte reserved (0)
-
- Following the file header are the data blocks for the image. Each data
- block within a PIC or MSK file is formatted as follows:
-
- OFFSET Count TYPE Description
- 0000h 1 dword The size of the block, including this header.
- 0004h 1 word Data type ID :
- 0 - Color palette info
- 1 - Byte-per-pixel image data
- 2 - Bit-per-pixel mask data
- 0006h ? byte Data
-
- The type values in the block headers indicate what type of graphics data
- the block contains.
-
- In a PIC_CMAP block, the first 2-byte word is a version code; currently
- this is set to zero. Following the version word are all 256 palette
- entries in rgb order. Each of the r, g, and b components is a single
- byte in the range of 0-255. This type of block appears in PIC files;
- there will generally be no color map block in a MSK file.
-
- In a PIC_BYTEPIXELS block, the image data appears immediately following
- the 6-byte block header. The data is stored as one byte per pixel, in
- left-to-right, topD to-bottom sequence.
-
- In a PIC_BITPIXELS block, the bitmap data appears immediately following
- the 6-byte block header. The data is stored as bits packed into bytes
- such that the leftmost bits appear in the high-order positions of each
- byte. The bits are stored in left-to-right, top-to bottom sequence. When
- the width of the bitmap is not a multiple of 8, there will be unused
- bits in the low order positions of the last byte on each line. The
- number of bytes per line is ((width+7)/8). This type of block appears in
- MSK files.
