Convert DCX to PPM

The DCX file extension, standing for ZSoft Multi-page Paintbrush Image, is a raster image format developed by ZSoft Corporation. It is primarily used for creating multi-page digital fax files, containing a sequence of PCX images. Each DCX file begins with a small header identifying the file, followed by multiple embedded PCX files. This format was widely adopted in early digital faxing and document imaging applications due to its ability to handle multiple pages within a single file.
The Portable Pixmap (PPM) file extension, an image format within the Netpbm family, stores simple, uncompressed images. Introduced in the late 1980s, PPM supports RGB color and grayscale images, making it suitable for basic image processing and conversion tasks. Its plain text encoding simplifies debugging and data manipulation, although its lack of compression results in larger file sizes compared to modern formats. As such, PPM finds limited use in contemporary applications, mainly in educational and experimental settings where ease of implementation and readability are prioritized.
