- The ppmd (ExtractNow File) is a compressed archive file type used by the ExtractNow program. It is used to store multiple files and folders in a single file for easy transfer or storage. It can be opened with ExtractNow, a free file decompression tool available for Windows.
- WinZip, starting with version 12.1, uses the extension .zipx for ZIP files that use compression methods newer than DEFLATE; specifically, methods BZip, LZMA, PPMd, Jpeg and Wavpack. The last 2 are applied to appropriate file types when "Best method" compression is selected.
