Frequently Asked Questions
PDB images are used by PalmOS ImageViewer. Converting PPSM slides to PDB lets you display presentation content on Palm devices, emulators, or retro computing setups.
PalmOS devices with ImageViewer, Palm Desktop software, Palm emulators like PHEM, and ImageMagick can all read PDB image files. Some specialized viewers also support the format.
PDB images support both grayscale and limited color palettes depending on the target Palm device. Most PDB images use grayscale to match older Palm screen capabilities.
No. PDB image files contain only bitmap pixel data sized for Palm displays. All VBA macros and embedded logic from the PPSM are completely stripped.
Yes — Convertio provides PPSM to PDB conversion free of charge. Upgraded plans offer larger file allowances and faster queue priority.
PDB images are inherently compact — designed for small Palm screens with limited memory. Slide content is scaled down to fit Palm display dimensions.
