What is a PPM file?

PPM or Portable Pixel Map format was developed in the 1980s to support transferring images between different computer platforms. Although PPM is a color image format, it consists of very little information about image besides color and data that is not visible to the naked eye. PPM file itself can contain one or more PPM images. Considering features of PPM format, it is clear that it’s a highly redundant and inefficient format. Even though PPM format is rare to find nowadays, you can open it with image editing apps such as Adobe Photoshop, Corel Paintshop Pro, GIMP, IrfanView, etc.

What is a GIF file?

GIF or Graphical Interchange Format is a bitmap image format that was introduced back in 1987 by CompuServe. Even though GIF supports only 256 colors, it has significant usability on the web because it is portable and compatible with different platforms. GIFs are mostly used on websites for banners, header images, buttons, etc. Because GIF is a lossless format with LZW compression method, the image quality doesn’t deteriorate with reduced image size. Since most web browsers can open GIF files, it is easy enough to view them. However, to edit the GIF file, you’ll need apps such as Corel Draw, Photoshop Illustrator, OmniPage Ultimate, GIMP, etc.
