Description
The PPMA file format, also known as Portable Bitmap, is a plain text format used for representing bitmap images. This format is a part of the Netpbm suite, which includes various formats for portable grayscale, color, and bitmap images. PPMA files specifically store color images using ASCII text to describe the width, height, maximum color value, and the pixel values in terms of red, green, and blue components. It is designed for simplicity and ease of transfer between different computer systems, though the ASCII representation makes it less efficient in terms of file size compared to binary image formats.
A GIF file is an image file often used for web graphics. It may contain up to 256 indexed colors with a color palette that may be a predefined set of colors or may be adapted to the colors in the image. GIF files are saved in a lossless format, meaning the clarity of the image is not compromised with GIF compression.
