Image Formats
.JPG
In computing, JPEG (pronounced jay-peg) is a commonly used standard method of lossy compression for photographic images. JPEG/JFIF is the format most used for storing and transmitting photographs on the World Wide Web.
- Perfect for sending big photos by e-mail.
- Support to add comments within each .jpg file.
As each save operation reduces the image quality it is not recommended to be used when archiving fotos.
.BMP
- The BMP format is the Windows® standard image format.
- Saves images in original quality.
- The BMP format is not used as an internet format because it does not use any compression.
.PNG
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is an image format supporting lossless compression. It was created in order to improve upon as well as replace the outdated GIF image format.
- Saves images in original quality.
- Disc space is saved because of the compression.
- Saving an image may take some more time then saving to the bmp format.
