- Description
- The RPGM file format, short for Portable Greyscale Map, is a type of image file that specifically stores greyscale graphics or images. It is designed to represent images in various shades of gray, ranging from black to white, without any color information. This file format is typically used in applications or environments where color is not necessary or desired, such as certain types of scientific imaging, document scanning, or specific graphic design projects. RPGM files are part of the Netpbm format collection, which also includes formats for black-and-white and color images.
- A JPG file is an image saved in a compressed image format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It is commonly used for storing digital photos and used by most digital cameras to save images. JPG files are among the most common image files along with .PNG, .TIF, and .GIF.
