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 WebP file extension stands for "Web Picture", a modern image format developed by Google. It aims to reduce file size without compromising quality, making it ideal for web use. Introduced in 2010, WebP supports both lossless and lossy compression, which enhances web performance and speeds up page loading times. This efficiency makes it a preferred choice for web developers and IT specialists focused on optimizing website performance.
