AVS to PGM Conversion: FAQ
What are AVS files?
The AVS image file format is associated with Stardent's Application Visualisation Software (AVS), a currently obsolete program which was popular during the early 1990s. An AVS file contains a bitmap image created using this software. Stardent was a fairly well-known manufacturer of graphics workstations, but it was unable to compete with other upcoming brands, such as IBM, HP and Silicon graphics, and was dissolved in 1994.
What are PGM files?
The PGM or Portable Graymap format is part of a package of open source graphics programs called Netpbm. Other Netpbm formats include PPM (Portable Pixmap) and PBM (Portable Bitmap), also known under the collective name of PNM (Portable Anymap). A PGM file includes a grayscale image, can work on a UNIX platform, as well as on Windows or Mac OS X, and can render a scope of up to 255 grayscale colors.
