DDS to XBM Conversion: FAQ

What are DDS files?

DDS (DirectDraw Surface) is an image file format that usually contains texture data, cubic environment maps or other type of data compressed using the S3TC (S3 Texture Compression) algorithm. The DDS format was first associated with Microsoft's DirectX 7.0 and later on with DirectDraw, a tool for accelerating the rendering of graphics in various applications. DDS is a container file and can be decompressed using a graphics processing unit (GPU).

What are XBM files?

The XBM (X BitMap) format represents a monochrome image file usually used for storing cursor and icon bitmaps in the X graphical user interface. XBMs store data as C language data array, so they can be included directly into an application. They are, however, fairly large in size. In the late 1980s the XBM format was superseded by the XPM format for the X Windows System.
