Palm Pixmap (.palm)

The PALM file extension, standing for Palm Pixmap, is a bitmap image format used by Palm OS mobile devices. It stores logos, clipart, photos, and other images for display in Palm OS applications. Originating from the now-discontinued Palm OS, the PALM format evolved through several versions, with later iterations supporting transparency and run-length encoding compression. PALM files are compatible with various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and Mac OS, and can be opened and converted using tools.

DirectDraw Surface (.dds)

The DirectDraw Surface (DDS) file extension is used primarily for storing graphical textures and cubic environment maps in the field of computer technology. Introduced by Microsoft with DirectX 7.0, DDS files facilitate efficient loading and storage of texture data, crucial for rendering 3D graphics in real-time applications like video games and simulation software. These files support both uncompressed and compressed formats, leveraging S3 Texture Compression (S3TC) to optimize memory usage and performance. DDS files are indispensable in modern graphics programming, enabling quick texture manipulation and robust graphical asset management.
