  3. PNG - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PNG

    The JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) format can produce a smaller file than PNG for photographic (and photo-like) images, since JPEG uses a lossy encoding method specifically designed for photographic image data, which is typically dominated by soft, low-contrast transitions, and an amount of noise or similar irregular structures.

  4. Image file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_format

    Image file format. An image file format is a file format for a digital image. There are many formats that can be used, such as JPEG, PNG, and GIF. Most formats up until 2022 were for storing 2D images, not 3D ones. The data stored in an image file format may be compressed or uncompressed. If the data is compressed, it may be done so using lossy ...

  5. JPEG - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG

    JPEG/Exif is also the most common format saved by digital cameras. However, JPEG is not well suited for line drawings and other textual or iconic graphics, where the sharp contrasts between adjacent pixels can cause noticeable artifacts. Such images are better saved in a lossless graphics format such as TIFF, GIF, PNG, or a raw image format ...

  6. Raster graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raster_graphics

    Most computer images are stored in raster graphics formats or compressed variations, including GIF, JPEG, and PNG, which are popular on the World Wide Web. [4] [5] A raster data structure is based on a (usually rectangular, square-based) tessellation of the 2D plane into cells, each containing a single value. To store the data in a file, the ...

  7. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

    In information technology, lossy compression or irreversible compression is the class of data compression methods that uses inexact approximations and partial data discarding to represent the content. These techniques are used to reduce data size for storing, handling, and transmitting content. The different versions of the photo of the cat on ...

    There are 4 basic choices for image file formats : SVG for simple diagrams (especially those that need to be scaled). JPEG for photographic images. GIF for animated images. PNG for everything else. While some formats offer multiple compression systems, in general the format and the compression system are tied together.

  9. Free Lossless Image Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Lossless_Image_Format

    The format supports an optional alpha channel like PNG (but unlike JPEG); and progressive coding, similar to PNG (unlike it, progressive compression doesn't increase file-size), but as FLIF's algorithm is more complex (and partly, may not have had as much tuning of the implementation yet), it has a higher computational cost; at least lower ...
