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.
The FAX file extension, short for "facsimile", is primarily associated with digital fax documents. These files are typically saved in TIFF format and are used to store images of documents sent or received via fax software. Historically, fax technology allowed the transmission of scanned printed material over telephone networks, a practice that became widespread in the 1980s and 1990s. Today, FAX files facilitate the digital handling of these documents, enabling easy archiving and viewing with compatible image viewers.
