JPEG 2000 Code Stream
The raw code stream of a JPEG 2000 image.
J2C represents the raw code stream of a JPEG 2000 image, stripped of the file format wrapper (JP2). It contains the compressed image data but lacks the metadata and structural information found in a full JP2 file.
A J2C file is essentially the 'payload' of a JPEG 2000 file. It consists of a sequence of markers and compressed data segments. Because it lacks a container, it relies on the decoder to know the image parameters or infer them from the stream markers.
Defined in Part 1 of the JPEG 2000 standard (ISO/IEC 15444-1) alongside the JP2 file format.
Portable Arbitrary Map
The 'universal' bitmap format of the Netpbm toolkit.
PAM (Portable Arbitrary Map) is the newest and most flexible member of the Netpbm format family (which includes PBM, PGM, and PPM). While earlier formats were strictly strictly black/white, grayscale, or RGB, PAM was designed to be generic. It can handle images with any number of channels, including transparency (alpha) channels, which the older formats lacked.
A PAM file starts with a text header defining width, height, maximum component value (depth), and 'TUPLTYPE' (describing what the channels mean, e.g., 'RGB_ALPHA' or 'CMYK'). The data follows as a raw binary stream of tuples. It unifies the parsing logic: instead of writing separate parsers for PBM/PGM/PPM, a program can just implement a PAM parser to handle everything.
Introduced with the Netpbm library updates to solve the 'Alpha Channel Problem'. The older formats (PPM) had no standard way to store transparency, leading to hacky non-standard extensions. PAM standardized this by allowing arbitrary tuple types.
