IDC to PPM Conversion: FAQ
What are IDC files?
IDC is a bitmap format created or edited using programs developed by Core Software. IDC files are currently considered rare and in case you found such a file it was probably created a long time ago and might be difficult to open with regular image viewers. For easier access, storing and transferring options, we recommend converting it to a more popular format, such as JPG or PNG.
What are PPM files?
PPM or Portable Pixelmap files are image files included in Netpbm, an open source graphics program. The other widely used Netpbm formats are PGM (Portable Graymap) and PBM (Portable Bitmap). All three are image formats and are sometimes called collectively PNMs (Portable Anymap format). While PGMs contains grayscale images, PPMs include color images and they represent intermediary files used in the conversion of less known formats using the Portable Bitmap Utilities. PPM files are mostly operated on UNIX and Intel-based platforms.
