The PICT file extension, developed by Apple in 1984, stands for Personalized Image Capture Technology. It was originally used by the QuickDraw graphics library on Macintosh computers to interchange both vector and bitmap graphics. PICT files have since been deprecated in favor of formats like PDF, but they were crucial for graphics exchange in early Mac applications.
The PAM (Portable Arbitrary Map) file extension is a versatile bitmap format used primarily in UNIX-based systems. It extends the Portable Any Map (PNM) format, supporting 2-dimensional image data storage in a binary format with an ASCII header. Introduced to enhance flexibility and interoperability in image processing, PAM files are utilized for various graphical applications, offering a standardized method for handling diverse image types. This format's history traces back to the need for a more adaptable and comprehensive bitmap solution within the PNM family.
