Convert DCR to PBM

The DCR (Digital Camera Raw) file extension is used by Kodak digital cameras to store uncompressed, lossless image data exactly as captured by the camera's sensor. This format retains more detail and allows for greater post-processing flexibility compared to compressed formats like JPEG. DCR files contain metadata such as camera settings and image dimensions. Historically, Kodak introduced this format to provide photographers with high-quality images for editing and archival purposes.
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.
