- Description
- The SCR file format, standing for Sun Rasterfile, is a raster graphics file format developed by Sun Microsystems. It is primarily used for storing bitmap images on SunOS/Solaris operating systems. The format supports various color depths, including 1, 8, 24, and 32-bit color images, allowing it to handle both grayscale and color images. SCR files are notable for their simplicity and were widely used in SunOS environments for graphical data storage and manipulation.
- 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.
