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.
VIFF and XV both stand for an identical format. The VIFF (Khoros Visualization Image File Format) is the native format for the Khoros System, a visual programming environment for image processing and visualization in scientific and commercial research. VIFF files support various image types with color spaces and can store multiple images per file. The format includes a 1024-byte header, followed by image data and optional colormap data, making it ideal for image and signal processing, pattern recognition, and geographic information systems.
