- Description
- A PPM file is a 24-bit color image formatted using a text format. It stores each pixel with a number from 0 to 65536, which specifies the color of the pixel. PPM files also store the image height and width, whitespace data, and the maximum color value.
- An SK1 vector graphic file is a file format primarily used by the sK1 illustration program, which focuses on providing professional-quality design features for prepress processing. Unlike other vector formats, the SK1 file format is unique for its support of CMYK color, which is crucial for color accuracy in printing. It also includes advanced features such as color profiles and spot colors, making it particularly suitable for tasks that require precise color matching and high-quality print outputs.
