About JPM Format

JPEG 2000 Compound Image

JPEG 2000 for multi-layer documents.

Overview

JPM (JPEG 2000 Part 6) is a compound image file format. It is designed for storing document images that contain a mix of text and graphics, using a Mixed Raster Content (MRC) model. It allows for different compression methods to be applied to different 'layers' of the image (e.g., sharp edges for text, smooth gradients for photos).

Technical Details

JPM splits an image into multiple layers (e.g., background, foreground mask, foreground color). Each layer can be compressed differently (e.g., JBIG2 for text mask, JPEG 2000 for background photos), optimizing both quality and file size for scanned documents. This is significantly more efficient than compressing an entire scanned page as a single JPEG 2000 image.

History

Part of the JPEG 2000 standard (ISO/IEC 15444-6), specifically targeting the document archival market.

Common Use Cases

  • Document Archival: Scanned documents with mixed content.

Advantages

  • Efficiency
  • Legibility

Limitations

About PGX Format

JPEG 2000 VM Uncompressed

A single-component test format for JPEG 2000 verification.

Overview

PGX is an extremely simple, uncompressed raster format created specifically for the development and testing of the JPEG 2000 standard (ISO 15444). It is defined in the JPEG 2000 Verification Model (VM). Its purpose is to store a single component (channel) of an image with potentially high bit depth and signed/unsigned values, without the complexity of a full image container.

Technical Details

A PGX file represents one image channel (grayscale). It starts with a minimalist text header identifying the endianness (`LMS` or `Big`), the sign (`+`/`-`), the bit depth, and dimensions. The raw pixel data follows immediately. It is effectively a raw dump of a single image plane.

History

Developed by the JPEG committee during the creation of JPEG 2000. It allowed researchers to test wavelet compression algorithms on raw data without worrying about file headers or color transforms.

Common Use Cases

  • Algorithm Testing: Testing a new wavelet transform implementation.
  • JPEG 2000 Component Separation: Storing the separated Y, U, and V channels of an image before compression.

Advantages

  • Precision

Limitations

  • Grayscale Only
  • Obscure
