The Sun Raster (SUN) file extension, originating from Sun Microsystems, is a bitmap image format used primarily on SunOS systems. Known for its versatility in storing raster graphics, it supports various color depths, from monochrome to 24-bit true color. Initially created for the Sun workstation's image processing software, it facilitated efficient graphical data manipulation and transmission. Over time, its straightforward structure and compatibility with different Unix-based systems ensured its adoption in diverse graphic applications. Today, while largely historical, the SUN file format remains an important part of the legacy of early computer graphics development.
The PNM (Portable Anymap) file extension, developed by Jef Poskanzer in the 1980s, stands for Portable Any Map. It is an uncompressed raster graphics format designed for portable image storage and exchange, encompassing three sub-formats: PBM (Portable Bitmap), PGM (Portable Graymap), and PPM (Portable Pixmap). PNM files store image data in plain text or binary format, ensuring easy usage across different platforms and applications. This format is widely supported by various image editing software and is valued for its simplicity and lossless compression.
