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