- 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.
- The JFIF (JPEG File Interchange Format) format makes it possible to transfer compressed JPEG files across computers. This graphical file format uses a marker to show various parameters not seen in the standard JPEG file — for instance, pixel size, pixel geometry, among others.
