*This is a copy from the Pillow docs.*


DCX is a container file format for PCX files, defined by Intel. The DCX format
is commonly used in fax applications. The DCX decoder can read files containing
``1``, ``L``, ``P``, or ``RGB`` data.

When the file is opened, only the first image is read. You can use
:py:meth:`~file.seek` or :py:mod:`~PIL.ImageSequence` to read other images.
