File Type JPEG Image File
Popularity 5 stars  Very Common
Category Raster Image Files
File Description Compressed image format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG); commonly used for storing digital photos since the format supports up to 24-bit color; therefore, most digital cameras save images as JPG files by default.

JPEG is also a common format for publishing Web graphics since the JPEG compression algorithm significantly reduces the file size of images; however, the lossy compression used by JPEG may noticeably reduce the image quality if high amounts of compression are used.

For more information about JPG files, view the JPEG definition.
