Convert XBM to JFIF

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 JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF), developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group, is a standardized method of storing and transferring JPEG-compressed images. Introduced in 1991, JFIF ensures compatibility and interoperability among different platforms and applications. It is extensively used in digital imaging and multimedia for efficient image compression, which reduces file size without significant loss of quality. As a widely adopted format, JFIF supports a range of devices and software, making it a cornerstone in computer graphics and online image sharing.
