PPM

Portable Pixmap Image File

The .ppm file extension is used for Portable PixMap format files and is intended to be an intermediate format that can be used in the development and conversion of other file formats. This format was specifically designed so that it could easily be exchanged between various platforms. It is very simple but not very storage efficient. Before the PPM format was introduced, Jef Poskanzer invented the PBM format in the year 1980 for transmission of monochrome bitmaps as ASCII text in email messages. He also developed a tool library for easy conversion of the PBM files to other graphical formats and vice versa. This library was called Pbmplus and was released in 1988. Later Poskanzer developed the PPM format along with the PGM format and the requisite tools that were added to Pbmplus.

CDR

CorelDRAW Image File

A .cdr extension file is a vector graphics format file created with the use of CorelDRAW which is a program used for graphical designing. The digital images created in this format are encoded and then saved using the compressive technique so that images can be opened, edited and stored in a compatible format.

A .ppm extension file comprises of two parts which include the header and the image related data. The header, in turn, is distributed into three parts that are demarcated by line feeds. The first line comprises of the magical PPM identifier which can either be P3 for the ASCII version or P6 for the binary version, and the next line has the image's height and width displayed in ASCII characters and the last line indicates the maximum color value of the pixels. The image data formatting is dependent on the magical identifier, given in the first line of the header. Each pixel consists of 3 decimal values ranging from 0 to the specified maximum value written in ASCII characters. The 0 in the decimal values denotes that the color is not present or is turned off and the maximum value denotes that the color is at its maximum level. Conventionally the image data is stored in a left to right and top to bottom order with each pixel being stored as a byte. The usual RGB (Red ñ Green ñ Blue) order is followed to store the components.
