PGM in het kort

PGM

Convert to PGM when you need a straightforward grayscale raster for scripting, research, or low-overhead image processing.

It is a good target for technical pipelines and intermediate data exchange.

AI in het kort

AI

Convert to AI when the recipient needs an editable Illustrator-native asset for ongoing design work, brand management, packaging updates, or professional vector refinement.

It is the right target when preserving Illustrator editability matters more than broad viewer compatibility.

For general sharing, PDF or SVG are often simpler handoff formats.
