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 TGZ format
TGZ — Gzip-compressed TAR Archive
TGZ (also written as .tar.gz) is a TAR archive compressed with gzip. It is the most common archive format on Linux and macOS for distributing software source code and project files. The combination delivers solid compression with fast decompression speeds and is natively supported by all Unix-like systems.
Common uses
- Linux/macOS software source distribution (.tar.gz)
- Open-source project release tarballs
- Server backup and deployment packages
