About the PPM format
PPM — Portable Pixmap
PPM is the full-color member of the Netpbm family, storing each pixel as RGB values (8 or 16 bits per channel). It is widely used as an interchange format in image processing scripts, being completely uncompressed and trivial to parse from any language.
Common uses
- Color image processing and scripting workflows
- Intermediate format in image conversion pipelines
- Scientific and research image interchange
- Generating images programmatically
About the G4 format
G4 — CCITT Group 4 FAX
G4 is the more advanced monochrome fax compression format defined by ITU-T for Group 4 fax machines and TIFF storage. Using Modified Modified READ (MMR) compression, it achieves significantly better compression than G3 and is the standard for TIFF-based document archiving.
Common uses
- High-compression document fax archiving
- TIFF G4 document scanning for records management
- Legal and government document storage
- Converting G4 fax archives to PDF
