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. The base specifications for a JPEG container format are defined in Annex B of the ...
The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file format was created as a free, open-source alternative to GIF. The PNG file format supports 8-bit (256 colors) paletted images (with optional transparency for all palette colors) and 24-bit truecolor (16 million colors) or 48-bit truecolor with and without alpha channel – while GIF supports only 8-bit ...
JPEG. JPEG ( / ˈdʒeɪpɛɡ / JAY-peg, short for Joint Photographic Experts Group) [2] 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.
List of file signatures. This is a list of file signatures, data used to identify or verify the content of a file. Such signatures are also known as magic numbers or Magic Bytes. Many file formats are not intended to be read as text. If such a file is accidentally viewed as a text file, its contents will be unintelligible.

A PNG file contains a single image in an extensible structure of chunks, encoding the basic pixels and other information such as textual comments and integrity checks documented in RFC 2083. [7] PNG files have the ".png" file extension and the "image/png" MIME media type. [8] PNG was published as an informational RFC 2083 in March 1997 and as ...
Exif. Exchangeable image file format (officially Exif, according to JEIDA/JEITA/CIPA specifications) [5] is a standard that specifies formats for images, sound, and ancillary tags used by digital cameras (including smartphones ), scanners and other systems handling image and sound files recorded by digital cameras.
JPEG Network Graphics (JNG, / ˈ dʒ ɪ ŋ /) 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. JNG was created as an adjunct to the MNG animation format, but may be used as a stand-alone format. JNG files embed ...
