PPM

The Portable Pixmap Format (PPM) is a simple and widely-used image file format that stores pixel data in a human-readable format. Ideal for basic graphics applications, PPM files support RGB color encoding and are versatile for both software developers and graphic designers. Despite larger file sizes compared to compressed formats, PPM's simplicity makes it a preferred choice for image manipulation and teaching digital imaging concepts.

JP2

JPEG 2000 (JP2) is a highly efficient image file format offering superior compression and quality compared to standard JPEG. It supports lossless and lossy compression, making it ideal for digital cinema, medical imaging, and archiving. With advanced features like progressive decoding and error resilience, JP2 is a versatile choice for high-resolution imagery across various applications.
