PBM to DGN Conversion: FAQ
What are PBM files?
The PBM (Portable Bitmap) file format is part of the Netpbm pack, together with two other formats: PPM (Portable Pixelmap) and PGM (Portable Graymap). The three formats are sometimes referred to under the collective name PNM (Portable Anymap) and they represent intermediary files used in the conversion processes supported by Portable Bitmap Utilities — a collection of open source software. The PBM format is associated with monochrome bitmaps, while PGM contains gray-scale bitmaps and PPM color bitmaps.
What are DGN files?
DGN stands for "design" and represents an extension typically used for CAD (Computer Aided Design) files created with Bentley Systems' MicroStation or with IGDS (Intergraph's Interactive Graphics Design System) — two popular programs used by architects, engineers, constructors and designers. DGN files can include sizeable building projects with a rich amount of details, usually have a very large size and can be viewed with a limited number of CAD programs.
