Convert XBM to EPT

The XBM (X11 Bitmap Graphic) file extension is a plain-text binary file format historically used in the X Window System to store monochrome bitmap images. Its primary use is for defining small, simple graphics such as icons and cursors. Originating from the 1980s, XBM files enable the inclusion of image data directly in C source code, facilitating easy integration and compilation within applications. While their use has declined with the advent of more advanced graphics formats, XBMs remain relevant for legacy systems and specific low-resource environments.

The EPT file extension stands for Encapsulated PostScript Interchange with TIFF Preview. It is primarily used in professional graphic design and desktop publishing, particularly with Adobe software. EPT files combine PostScript data for high-quality printing with a TIFF preview for on-screen viewing. This format emerged to facilitate the exchange of complex graphic files between different systems and applications, ensuring both print accuracy and visual consistency. Its adoption has been crucial in workflows requiring precise color management and detailed image rendering.
