The PBM (Portable Bitmap) file extension, part of the Netpbm project, originated in the late 1980s to facilitate efficient and portable graphics file interchange. Primarily, PBM files are used to store monochrome bitmaps in a simple ASCII text format, ensuring easy compatibility across different systems and platforms. This format supports only black-and-white imagery, making it particularly useful in scenarios where simplicity and minimalism are prioritized, such as in Unix environments for bitmap manipulation and transfer. Its historical significance lies in promoting a standardized approach to bitmap graphics in early computer technology.
The AI file extension stands for Adobe Illustrator Artwork and is predominantly used for vector graphics in design and illustration. Introduced by Adobe Systems in 1987 with the release of Adobe Illustrator, AI files are essential in professional graphic design due to their scalability without loss of quality. These files support a range of features including shapes, paths, and text, allowing for detailed and versatile artwork creation. As a standard in the industry, AI files are widely supported by various graphic design software, ensuring compatibility and ease of use in diverse digital projects.
