Photo CD (.pcd)

The PCD (Photo CD) file extension, developed by Kodak, is used for storing digital images on a Photo CD. This format was introduced in the early 1990s to digitize and archive physical photographs. PCD files contain high-resolution images scanned from film, typically at resolutions of 3072 x 2048 pixels or higher. These files are utilized for preserving, viewing, and editing images using compatible software. The PCD format supports 24-bit color and includes multiple resolutions within a single file, facilitating versatile image processing and archival purposes.

Portable Pixmap (.ppm)

The Portable Pixmap (PPM) file extension, an image format within the Netpbm family, stores simple, uncompressed images. Introduced in the late 1980s, PPM supports RGB color and grayscale images, making it suitable for basic image processing and conversion tasks. Its plain text encoding simplifies debugging and data manipulation, although its lack of compression results in larger file sizes compared to modern formats. As such, PPM finds limited use in contemporary applications, mainly in educational and experimental settings where ease of implementation and readability are prioritized.
