XCF

eXperimental Computing Facility

XCF (eXperimental Computing Facility) is the native image format of the GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) software. It is a layered image format, allowing users to save their progress, layers, channels, paths, and text layers for further editing. While XCF retains all editing data and layers, it's not typically used for web or print because many other programs do not recognize it. Instead, it's primarily used to save intermediate stages of digital art or photo editing within GIMP.

PPM

Portable pixmap format (color)

PPM stands for Portable Pixmap, and it is a simple image format that is part of the Netpbm package. The PPM format stores color images in a plain text or binary format, representing pixel values with three numbers for red, green, and blue color channels. PPM files are easy to read and understand, but they can be large in size as they do not employ any form of compression, resulting in each pixel being represented by full color intensity values.
