Convert PDB GRAPHICS to PBM
Convert PDB GRAPHICS images to PBM format, edit and optimize images online and free.
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.
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.
