The ERF, which refers to Epson Raw File, is a proprietary format used by Epson digital cameras to store uncompressed image data, capturing all sensor details. This format enables high-quality images and extensive post-processing flexibility. ERF files can be edited with specialized software, and some Epson cameras include a utility for basic adjustments. Although ERF files are large and require more storage and processing power, they are preferred by professional photographers for their superior quality and editing capabilities.
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.
