In comparison, when storing images that contain text, line art, or graphics – images with sharp transitions and large areas of solid color – the PNG format can compress image data more than JPEG can. Additionally, PNG is lossless, while JPEG produces visual artifacts around high-contrast areas.
The PNG, JPEG, and GIF formats are most often used to display images on the Internet. Some of these graphic formats are listed and briefly described below, separated into the two main families of graphics: raster and vector.
JPEG (/ ˈ dʒ eɪ p ɛ ɡ / JAY-peg, short for Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly for those images produced by digital photography. The degree of compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size and image quality.
Comparison of graphics file formats. This is a comparison of image file formats (graphics file formats). This comparison primarily features file formats for 2D images .
If a diagram cannot be produced in SVG, then a PNG image is preferred over a JPEG. The PNG compression algorithm is designed to work with large areas of solid colour that have sharp boundaries. It is therefore a good format for diagrams and cartoons.
The JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF) is an image file format standard published as ITU-T Recommendation T.871 and ISO/IEC 10918-5. It defines supplementary specifications for the container format that contains the image data encoded with the JPEG algorithm.
This enables reading and writing to a variety of formats, including JPEG, JPEG2000, Apple Icon Image format, TIFF, PNG, PDF, BMP and more. SView5 may also run on Linux/x86 and MacOS/x86 using Mono . References [ edit ]
This tutorial explains how to insert pictures into Wikipedia articles using wikitext. This is one of the most frequently asked questions. It describes options for specifying placement, alt text, captions, sizes and links, and contains advice about panoramas and avoiding image stackups.
Format conversion: convert an image from one format to another (e.g. PNG to JPEG). Transform: resize, rotate, crop, flip or trim an image. (Applies these without generation loss on JPEG files, where possible.) Transparency: render portions of an image invisible. Draw: add shapes or text to an image. Decorate: add a border or frame to an image.
JPEG Network Graphics ( JNG, / ˈdʒɪŋ /) is a JPEG -based graphics file format which is closely related to PNG: it uses the PNG file structure (with a different signature) as a container format to wrap JPEG-encoded image data.
