File Name:
PBM, or Portable Bitmap, is a monochrome image format designed to store pixel-based images in a plain text or binary format.
PBM files are known for their:
• Simplicity: Easy to read and write due to its straightforward, human-readable format.
• Uncompressed Data: Stores image data without compression, ensuring no loss of quality but resulting in larger file sizes.
• Wide Support: Can be easily manipulated with basic text or image processing tools.
Here are some considerations for PBM files:
• Large File Size: Uncompressed nature leads to larger files compared to compressed formats like JPEG or PNG.
• Basic Features: Does not support advanced features like layers, transparency, or metadata.
Overall, PBM is suitable for simple monochrome image storage and manipulation tasks, often used in educational settings or for quick image processing tasks where simplicity and readability are more important than file size.
SUN Raster, or Sun Rasterfile, is a raster graphics file format originally created for use on Sun Microsystems workstations.
SUN Raster files are known for their:
• Flexibility: Supports various color depths, from 1-bit monochrome to 24-bit true color images.
• Compatibility: Used primarily in Unix and Unix-like operating systems, making it suitable for cross-platform applications.
• Compression: Optionally supports Run-Length Encoding (RLE) compression to reduce file size.
Here are some considerations for SUN Raster files:
• Limited Modern Use: Not as widely supported as other formats like PNG or JPEG.
• Larger File Size: Simple compression methods may not reduce file size as effectively as modern formats.
Overall, SUN Raster is suitable for legacy systems and applications where compatibility with Unix-based systems is essential.
