- Description
- A PGM file is a grayscale image file saved in the portable gray map (PGM) format and encoded with one or two bytes (8 or 16 bits) per pixel. It contains header information and a grid of numbers that represent different shades of gray from black (0) to white (up to 65,536). PGM files are typically stored in ASCII text format, but also have a binary representation.
- The PGX file format is associated with Hopedot VOS, a virtual operating system software that allows users to run a separate operating environment on their computers, similar to virtualization technologies. A PGX file typically contains data related to the Hopedot VOS environment, such as settings, applications, and other user-specific information.
