Portable Network Graphic or PNG as it is more commonly referred to, is a file format for storing bitmapped (raster) images. The format supports lossless data compression and was created as an improved, non-patented replacement for Graphics Interchange Format (GIF). It is the most used lossless image compression format on the Internet.
In Blade® v1.13, we have developed an Intelli-Carve® Data Recovery Engine which understands the PNG file format; the software can verify the integrity of the data structures during the recovery process. It can also identify partial recovery scenarios and can recover those file fragments to a separate folder for examination.
