PPM Image Format

PPM Converter

A PPM file goes by the full name of a Portable Pixmap Image file and is a Raster image file. Raster files generally define a pixel with one or more number and that number then defines different attributes including the size and colour. A PPM file is no different, it is a 24-bit colour image file and each pixel is stored with a number between 0 and 65536 and the colour of the pixel will depend on that number. Like other Raster files, a PPM file also stores data like dimensions and white-space data. Unlike many other Raster image files, the PPM file is uncompressed meaning it has a prohibitively large file size and so PPM files are often not shared and because they’re not shared they’re not widely used either. Raster image files benefit from being able to be opened by almost any image program and the PPM file is no different in that respect in that it can be opened by MS Paint, Photoshop, PaintShop Pro and many other applications.

PNG Image Format

PNG Converter

PNG is a common type of image file. The file extension PNG is short for ‘Portable Network Graphic’, and the format was created to offer improvements over the GIF format. Like JPG, PNG is a 2D ‘raster’ image format. However, unlike JPG, PNG files can have transparent or semi-transparent backgrounds around a design. This makes them perfect to use for company or brand logos or graphics that need to be placed in documents or over other images. They are also sometimes used for detailed graphs or diagrams online.

PNGs use lossless compression, which offers high-quality images with more colours. However, this often means PNG files are bigger than some other formats like JPG. The PNG format is open source, and you can open these files using almost all devices, image editors and viewers. Many smartphones now allow you to easily remove backgrounds and create PNGs of individual parts of photos.
