Disclosed are method and apparatus for storing information of a picture. The method includes presenting a picture file to be edited, which at least includes original picture data; editing the picture file with an interface engine; integrating rendering information of the edited picture file according to a preset picture file format; and storing the original picture data and the rendering information. According to the invention, the interface engine is improved, and thus may directly edit a picture in use, and integrate the rendering information of the edited picture file according to a preset picture format. Therefore, during development, it is not required to store rendering information of a picture into codes, so that no programmer is required to intervene in rendering and setting of the picture. An art-designer may directly operate on the interface engine to change rendering effects, meanwhile, final rendering effects may be observed without running a program.
