Source format

What is GIF?

Graphics Interchange Format (.gif). GIF is the 1987 image format behind short looping animations. Each frame can use at most 256 colours and there is no sound, so GIFs of real video are large for their quality. Transparency is on or off per pixel, without soft edges.

Common use: Short animations, memes, reaction images, simple graphics

Output format

What is PPM?

Portable Pixmap (.ppm). PPM is the colour member of the Netpbm family: uncompressed RGB pixels with a tiny text header. Programs use it as a simple exchange format, but the files are large and few viewers open them.

Common use: Image processing scripts and tools
