Convert PIX to JPM

The PIX file extension stands for Alias/Wavefront Run-Length Encoding (RLE) Image Format. Developed by Alias Systems Corporation (later acquired by Autodesk), it was designed for storing bitmap images in PowerAnimator and Alias 3D software. This format was instrumental in creating high-resolution 3D models and animations for movies and video games in the 1990s. The RLE compression minimized file size without compromising image quality, optimizing performance for graphics-heavy tasks. Although its usage has declined in favor of more versatile formats, PIX played a significant role in the evolution of computer graphics technology.

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.
