GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) compresses bitmap images using a method called Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) compression. This technique reduces file size by replacing repeated strings of data with shorter codes, effectively encoding the image's pixel patterns. Additionally, GIF supports a limited color palette of up to 256 colors per frame, which further decreases file size compared to full-color bitmaps. This combination of color limitation and LZW compression makes GIF suitable for simple graphics and animations.
