The SFW file extension, created by Seattle FilmWorks, was used to store digital copies of photos processed by the company, allowing customers to receive both physical prints and digital images. Although not widely supported by modern software, SFW files can still be opened and converted using tools and older versions of image viewers. This format marks a significant step in the evolution of digital photography.
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.
