Sidecar files are computer files that store data, often metadata, that is not supported by the format of a source file. They are also known as buddy files or connected files

-‘image file formats’ are standardized means of ‘organizing’ + ‘storing’ digital images-
.
(‘image files’ are composed of ‘digital data’ in 1 of these formats that can be ‘rasterized’ for use on a ‘computer display’ or ‘printer’)
.
(an ‘image file format’ may store ‘data’ in 3 ways…)
‘uncompressed’
‘compressed’
*’vector’ formats*
(?)
(neither ‘compressed’ nor ‘uncompressed’)
(a ‘steady state’ in terms of ‘file size’)
.
(once ‘rasterized’, an ‘image’ becomes a ‘grid’ of ‘pixels’, each of which has a number of ‘bits’ to designate its ‘color equal’ to the ‘color depth’ of the device displaying it)
