KRO Format

The KRO format is a simple image saving format.

20 bit long header:
3 bit:  "KRO" signature in 0x4B 0x52 0x4F hexadecimal
1 bit:  version 0x01
Unsigned long: Width
Unsigned long: Height
Unsigned long: depth => 8 bits, 16 bits, 32 bits
Unsigned long: ncomp => number of bodies, nodes and 4 default, RGB + Alpha
* Data: The data is not compressed


  • Everything is stored in the big endian format (header and data).
  • The data is saved RGBA, RGBA (or RVB, RGB only if the component is 3).
  • It is the order of the principal lines: the first line is stores, then the second, etc.
  • The top row is the first line.
  • The columns from left to right are stored in a line.
  • The 16 bit format is a full 16 bytes (0...65535), no floating point (this is not like the half of floating points in OpenEXR).
  • The 32 bit format is pure 'c' float stored in big endian binary format (IEEE 754 binary in floating point).
  • No specification of color space or metadata stored.
  • The maximum file size is governed by the file system.
