CCX

Corel Compressed Exchange

Data type	Vector image (metafile / clipart container)
MIME type	application/x-ccx
Developer	Corel Corporation
Primary use cases	Legacy Corel clipart collections (e.g., Corel Gallery), exchanging reusable vector elements in Corel-centric workflows

What is the CCX file format?

CCX is a legacy Corel vector clipart format: a compressed variant of CMX used in Corel clipart collections and exchange workflows.

CCX file characteristics

Data type	Vector image (metafile / clipart container)
MIME type	application/x-ccx
Structure type	RIFF-based chunked container with compressed payload
Container format	RIFF container with embedded compressed sections (“pack” chunk); effectively a compressed CMX variant
Typical file size	Usually smaller than comparable uncompressed exchange metafiles; can still grow with complex art or embedded rasters

Advantages

The CCX file format offers several advantages that make it suitable for common use cases.

Compact (compressed) compared to plain exchange metafiles;
Keeps vector scalability;
Convenient for distributing large clipart libraries

Limitations

The CCX file format has certain limitations that may affect its use in specific scenarios.

The .ccx extension is ambiguous in general (it can also mean Adobe Creative Cloud Extension), but in “vector/clipart Corel” context it refers to Corel Compressed Exchange. Import quality varies by version and tool;
Complex effects may not survive conversion perfectly.

Compatibility

CCX vector files are supported by a wide range of design and graphics applications.

Supported platforms: Legacy CorelDRAW/Corel clipart tools; limited import via third-party converters/import filters
Supported devices: Computers; print/prepress workflows via conversion (PDF/SVG/EPS)
Browser support: No
Mobile support: No

Security considerations

Treat CCX as untrusted input: parsing + decompression increases attack surface (crashes/DoS). Convert in a sandbox and keep import libraries up to date.

Proprietary format (Corel)

CCX (Corel Compressed Exchange) is a Corel vector graphics format historically used for clipart (e.g., large Corel Gallery collections). Technically, it is a compressed form of CMX: the file is RIFF-based, with parts of the RIFF structure stored inside a special compressed “pack” chunk, typically using zlib/DEFLATE compression.
