Palm bitmap (variously called Palm Pilot Tbmp, Palm Pilot Bitmap, Palm pixmap, etc.) is a raster image file format. It supports a variety of image types and compression schemes.
Format
A Palm bitmap file may contain multiple versions (called renditions) of the same image, with different color types.
The file (and each rendition) begins with a header. Old versions have a 16-byte header, while version 3 has a 24-byte header. The first 10 bytes of the header are common to all versions.
