Convert XBM to HEIC
Convert XBM images to HEIC format, edit and optimize images online and free.
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 High Efficiency Image Container (HEIC) is a file extension used to store images and image sequences, leveraging the High Efficiency Image Format (HEIF). Developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) and introduced in 2015, HEIC files are acclaimed for their superior compression efficiency, which allows for high-quality images at smaller file sizes. This format is widely used in modern digital devices, including smartphones and cameras, to optimize storage capacity without compromising image quality. It supports advanced features such as live photos, burst photo sequences, and transparent images, making it integral for contemporary digital imaging solutions.
