Palm Database
The generic database container for Palm OS.
PDB (Palm Database) is the standard file format for all data on Palm OS devices, from address books to e-books. In the context of images, a PDB file acts as a container for 'Palm Pixmap' images, typically storing them as a series of records. It was the only way to get data onto a Palm pilot.
A PDB file consists of a header (name, attributes, creation time) and a list of records. For images, these records contain the bitmap data (often compressed with RLE/PackBits). ImageMagick treats PDB files as a multi-image sequence if multiple bitmaps are stored in the records. The format is strictly structured to map directly to the device's RAM storage model.
Created by Palm Computing in 1996. It was designed to facilitate 'HotSync' between the handheld's RAM and the desktop PC. It became ubiquitous in the early 2000s PDA era.
Microsoft Windows Cursor
The standard format for static mouse cursors on Microsoft Windows.
The CUR format is the standard file format for static mouse cursors in the Microsoft Windows operating system. It is structurally almost identical to the ICO (Icon) format, with one key difference: the header contains a defined 'hotspot'. The hotspot specifies the exact pixel coordinate (x, y) that registers the click, such as the tip of an arrow pointer.
A CUR file starts with a header similar to an ICO file, but the 'image type' field is set to 2 (Cursor) instead of 1 (Icon). For each image in the file (it can contain multiple sizes/depths), the directory entry stores the hotspot X and Y coordinates instead of the color planes/bpp fields found in ICOs. The image data itself is typically a BMP with a 1-bit AND mask for transparency, or a PNG in modern versions.
Introduced with Windows 1.0, the format has evolved alongside Windows. Originally supporting only monochrome, it grew to support 16 colors, 256 colors, and finally 32-bit alpha-blended cursors in Windows XP.
