- Description
- The PNM (Portable Any Map Image) file format is a subset of the broader Netpbm format, designed for storing various types of digital images. It acts as an umbrella term for three specific types of grayscale, color, and black-and-white images, represented by PBM (Portable Bitmap), PGM (Portable Graymap), and PPM (Portable Pixmap) formats respectively. PNM files are known for their simplicity and ease of conversion to other image formats.
- PFS Art Publisher Image (ART) is a raster graphics file format used for storing digital images. It was developed by Progressive Networks for use in their Progressive FreeStyle Art Publisher software. ART files are compressed using the run-length encoding (RLE) algorithm, which allows them to store large images in a relatively small file size. The ART format supports up to 24-bit color and is often used for storing digital photos and other images.
