Portable Arbitrary Map (.pam)

The PAM (Portable Arbitrary Map) file extension is a versatile bitmap format used primarily in UNIX-based systems. It extends the Portable Any Map (PNM) format, supporting 2-dimensional image data storage in a binary format with an ASCII header. Introduced to enhance flexibility and interoperability in image processing, PAM files are utilized for various graphical applications, offering a standardized method for handling diverse image types. This format's history traces back to the need for a more adaptable and comprehensive bitmap solution within the PNM family.

Device Independent Bitmap (.dib)

A Device Independent Bitmap (DIB) is a format for storing bitmap graphics, ensuring compatibility across different devices and platforms. Its primary use is to enable consistent image representation, regardless of the display hardware or software. Originating from early Windows operating systems, DIBs allowed developers to create graphics that would render accurately on various hardware. Today, DIBs are integral in applications needing uniform image display and manipulation, maintaining their relevance in diverse technological contexts.
