Frequently Asked Questions
Is the conversion process secure?
Yes, our converter uses secure protocols to ensure your files are processed safely. We do not store your files after conversion.
What is the maximum file size I can convert?
The maximum file size is 2MB. This limit is in place to ensure optimal performance and prevent server overload.
Can I convert multiple CUR files at once?
Currently, our converter supports converting one CUR file at a time. We are working on adding batch conversion functionality in the future.
What if the converted PCX file looks different from the original CUR?
Differences may occur due to the inherent limitations of converting between different image formats. The PCX format is a bitmap, while CUR files can contain more complex data. We strive to provide the most accurate conversion possible.
About CUR and PCX Formats
CUR files are primarily used for storing Windows cursor icons. They contain image data and hotspot information, defining the active point of the cursor. PCX, on the other hand, is an older bitmap image format originally developed for the PC Paintbrush software. While less common today, PCX files can still be useful for specific applications and image editing tasks. Converting from CUR to PCX allows you to utilize cursor designs in programs that don't natively support the CUR format, or for archival purposes. This conversion process extracts the image data from the CUR file and saves it as a PCX bitmap.
