Both formats, briefly
SVGIN
An SVG stores a drawing as instructions rather than a grid of pixels. Lines, curves and fills are redrawn at whatever size the page asks for, so one file looks sharp as a 16 pixel icon and as a printed poster. That makes it the right pick for logos, icons, charts and interface graphics. The contents are XML, so you can edit an SVG in a text editor and style or animate it with CSS. Photographs are the one thing it handles badly.
PPMOUT
PPM is deliberately plain: a short text header followed by raw RGB values, with no compression and no structure to parse. That is what you want when you are writing image code yourself or piping frames between command line tools, because reading and writing it takes a few lines. It belongs to the Netpbm family, next to PGM for grayscale and PBM for pure black and white. The files are enormous, so convert before sending one anywhere.
