Convert APNG (Animated PNG) to PDB GRAPHICS

Animated Portable Network Graphics (APNG) is an extension of the Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format designed to support animated images. Introduced in 2004, APNG allows for animated sequences while retaining backward compatibility with non-animated PNG files. This format is utilized for its lossless compression, making it ideal for web graphics where image quality is paramount. APNG files are widely used for animated icons, logos, and other elements that benefit from high-quality animations without the artifacts common in GIF files. Its concise, efficient structure makes it a preferred choice among developers and designers focused on optimizing web performance.

The PDB (Palm Database ImageViewer) file extension is a format used primarily in Palm OS devices for storing bitmap images. Known also as FireViewer or TinyViewer format, it supports grayscale images with 2, 4, or 16 shades and can be uncompressed or use RLE compression. This format was integral to Palm OS applications like Image Viewer III, facilitating efficient image storage and viewing on early mobile devices.
