PNM Raw at a glance

PNM Raw

PNM survived because engineers kept needing a no-drama raster family for scripts, fixtures, codecs, and image-processing experiments where the format should not be the hard part.

JXR at a glance

JXR

JPEG XR grew from Microsoft's HD Photo work and then moved through standards bodies, but it remained much more niche than formats such as JPEG, PNG, or later AVIF/WebP families.
