Convert CUT to JPM

The CUT file extension stands for Dr. Halo Bitmap Image. Originally developed by Media Cybernetics for the Dr. Halo software, it is a device-independent bitmap image format that supports 8 bits per pixel, allowing for a total of 256 colors. CUT files are used for storing small bitmap images and require a separate PAL file to define colors. Without this palette file, the images display as grayscale. Over time, support for CUT files has expanded to various other applications.

The JPM file extension stands for JPEG 2000 Compound Image File Format. It is used for storing multiple images and graphics, incorporating JPEG 2000 compression to achieve high-quality visuals with reduced file sizes. JPM files are particularly useful in scenarios that require efficient storage and handling of complex image data, such as digital archiving, medical imaging, and document management. Developed as part of the broader JPEG 2000 standard, the JPM format was introduced to enhance image quality and compression over its predecessor, JPEG. Its support for transparency, layers, and metadata makes it a versatile choice in professional IT and imaging applications.
