PRC (Palm Resource Code) is a container format for code databases in Palm OS, Garnet OS and Access Linux Platform. Its structure is similar to PDB databases.[1] Usually, a PRC file is a flat representation of a Palm OS application that is stored as forked database[clarification needed] on the PDA.
PRC files are also used by the Mobipocket e-book-reader (here sometimes referred to as MOBI format[2]). The AZW format of Amazon's Kindle reading device is in turn a DRM-restricted form of the Mobipocket format.
On Palm OS, PRC files are used for applications, localized resources (overlays) and shared libraries.[1]
