Canon Raw CIFF Image Format (.crw)

The CRW file extension stands for Canon Raw CIFF Image Format, a raw image file format used by Canon digital cameras. Developed to store uncompressed and unprocessed images, CRW files offer high-quality image data that can be edited with Canon's software or third-party editors like Adobe Photoshop. Introduced by Canon, this format has been largely superseded by newer formats like CR2 and CR3 but remains significant in the history of digital photography for its role in preserving image integrity.

Portable Bitmap (.pbm)

The PBM (Portable Bitmap) file extension, part of the Netpbm project, originated in the late 1980s to facilitate efficient and portable graphics file interchange. Primarily, PBM files are used to store monochrome bitmaps in a simple ASCII text format, ensuring easy compatibility across different systems and platforms. This format supports only black-and-white imagery, making it particularly useful in scenarios where simplicity and minimalism are prioritized, such as in Unix environments for bitmap manipulation and transfer. Its historical significance lies in promoting a standardized approach to bitmap graphics in early computer technology.
