What is a PCD file?
A PCD file is an image saved in the proprietary Kodak Photo CD (PCD) format. It stores a digital copy of an actual photograph that has been scanned using Kodak's photo processing hardware and stored on a compact disc (CD).
Kodak developed the PCD format to enable users to preserve their physical photographs in a digital format on a Photo CD. Users could then insert the Photo CD into the computer to view and edit their images with an image editor or archive them.
PCD images scanned with Kodak photo processing hardware are typically scanned at a resolution of 3072x2048 pixels. However, the images may also be scanned at 6144x4096 using Kodak's Pro Photo CD service. Both formats support 24-bit color.
PCD files typically contain five copies of the image at different resolutions, and Pro Photo CD images contain an additional sixth image that is 6144x4096 pixels in size. The smallest image size is 192x128 pixels, and this image is used as a thumbnail for browsing all the photos on the CD at once.
How to open a PCD file
You can open PCD images with several applications, including IrfanView (Windows), XnViewMP (multiplatform), Corel PaintShop Pro (Windows), and Lemkesoft GraphicConverter (macOS).
You can convert PCD images to the JPEG format with the pcdtojpeg utility, XnViewMP, IrfanView, Corel PaintShop Pro, and Lemkesoft GraphicConverter.
