- 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 sk2 file type is a vector graphic format created by the sK1 open source vector graphics editor. It is an extension of the sk1 format and is used to store vector graphics and images. The sk2 file format supports layers, masking, transparency, and other advanced features.
