About FAX and PGM Formats
FAX (Facsimile) is a widely used method for transmitting documents electronically over telephone lines. The resulting FAX files often contain raster images of the original document. PGM (Portable Graymap) is a simple image format that stores grayscale pixel data. It's commonly used in image processing and computer vision applications. Converting from FAX to PGM allows you to utilize the image data within FAX files for further analysis, editing, or integration into other systems. This conversion is useful when you need to work with the image content of a fax document in a digital format suitable for image manipulation software or algorithms.
