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.

Originating in 2015, HEIF was developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) and utilizes the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) codec to store image data. It supports a wide range of multimedia applications, including single images, image sequences, auxiliary image items, and non-image items, making it highly versatile for professional and consumer usage in various devices and platforms. Its ability to maintain high image quality while reducing file size significantly improves storage efficiency and accelerates data transmission.
