Information about PPM and JPEG file formats

🔸 File format	PPM	JPEG
🔸 Full name	Portable Pixmap file	JPEG - Joint Photographic Experts Group
🔸 File extension	.ppm	.jpg, .jpeg, .jpe
🔸 MIME type	image/x-ppm, image/x-portable-pixmap	image/jpeg
🔸 Developed by	Jef Poskanzer	Joint Photographic Experts Group
🔸 Type of format	Image File
🔸 Description	The portable pixmap format (PPM) is an image format designed to be easily exchanged between platforms used by Netpbm - an open-source package of graphics programs and a programming library, used mainly in the Unix world. The format is the lowest common denominator color image file format and is highly inefficient, containing a lot of information the human eye can't even discern. The precursor to the PPM format was the PBM format invented by Jef Poskanzer in the 1980s as a format that allowed monochrome bitmaps to be transmitted within an email message as plain ASCII text, allowing it to survive any changes in text formatting. By 1988, Poskanzer had developed the PGM and PPM formats and their associated tools and added them to Pbmplus. The final release of Pbmplus was December 10, 1991.	JPEG is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly those produced by digital photography. The degree of compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size and image quality. JPEG typically achieves 10:1 compression with little perceptible loss in image quality.
🔸 Technical details	A PPM file consists of a sequence of one or more PPM images. There are no data, delimiters, or padding before, after, or between images. Each PPM image consists of the following: A magic number for identifying the file type. A ppm image's magic number is the two characters P6. Whitespace (blanks, TABs, CRs, LFs). A width, formatted as ASCII characters in decimal. Whitespace. A height, again in ASCII decimal. Whitespace. The maximum color value (Maxval), again in ASCII decimal. Must be less than 65536 and more than zero. A single whitespace character (usually a newline). A raster of Height rows, in order from top to bottom. Each row consists of Width pixels, in order from left to right. Each pixel is a triplet of red, green, and blue samples, in that order. Each sample is represented in pure binary by either 1 or 2 bytes. If the Maxval is less than 256, it is 1 byte. Otherwise, it is 2 bytes. The most significant byte is first. There is another version of the PPM format that is fairly rare: plain PPM format.
