About the MAC format

MAC is the native bitmap format of MacPaint, Apple's original paint application bundled with the first Macintosh in 1984. MacPaint files are monochrome (black and white) 576×720 pixel images that represent one of the earliest consumer bitmap graphics formats in computing history.
Common uses

About the RLA format
RLA — Alias/Wavefront RLA Image
RLA is a multi-channel image format developed by Alias Research (later Alias|Wavefront, now Autodesk) for 3D rendering and compositing. It stores standard color channels alongside auxiliary channels such as depth (Z), object ID, and normal vectors, enabling sophisticated compositing workflows.
Common uses
- 3D rendering compositing with depth and ID channels
- VFX multi-pass rendering output
- Converting legacy Alias/Maya render output
- 3D studio animation frame storage
