- 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.
- The TCR file format is associated with eBook files specifically used by Psion Series 3 devices. Psion Series 3, a range of personal digital assistants (PDAs) developed in the early 1990s, utilized these files to store and display electronic books (eBooks). TCR files are designed to be compact to suit the limited storage capacities of early PDAs. They contain the text of the eBook, and possibly basic formatting, optimized for the low-resolution screens of the Psion device.
