What is a .PPM file?

PPM files are images saved in the Portable Pixmap (PPM) format, a simple, uncompressed file type used to store full-color images using RGB color values for each pixel. Unlike formats such as JPEG or PNG, PPM files do not use compression, preserving all color details but resulting in larger file sizes. These files are commonly used in graphic design, image processing, and academic or scientific applications.

You may encounter PPM files in legacy software, image editing projects, or as part of the Netpbm format family. File Viewer Plus can open PPM files and convert them to more widely used image formats such as PNG, JPEG, and TIFF for easier sharing and editing.
