The SIXEL, or "six pixels", is a bitmap graphics format created by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) for their terminals and printers. Initially designed for DEC dot matrix printers like the LA50, it enabled the efficient transfer of bitmap graphics using a series of ASCII characters. Each character represents a 6-pixel high row, making it suitable for 7-bit serial communication. This format was later adapted for modern terminal emulators, extending its utility beyond its original scope.
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.
