Converting PBM to APNG does not create transparency by itself.
Converting PBM to APNG decodes the source image and writes a APNG output. Use this route when APNG is a better fit for compatibility, file size, editing, or delivery.
Quality behavior depends on APNG compression: lossless.
Choose conversion targets based on APNG compression, transparency, animation, metadata, and compatibility requirements.
