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.
The TGA file extension, created by Truevision Inc. in 1984, is a raster graphics format that supports multiple color depths and transparency. Originally designed for Truevision's graphics cards, TGA files are widely used in video game development, film, and animation to store high-resolution images with minimal quality loss. The format includes metadata sections and can be edited with popular image editing software.
