Why do you not accept JPEG files?

SiteStat.jsp
There are a few reasons, but mainly because the JPEG file format is 'lossy', that is to say that the figure quality will be reduced each time the file is opened/manipulated. Also, JPEG file size can be prohibitive.

Why JPEG files created by the editor are too large ?

Drawing applet. FAQ
The JPEG file size depends on the quality parameter which can vary from 1 to 100. The value 100 gives the best quality (the same as the original image had) but the biggest file size and conversely for 1. The default value used by the editor is 80, but you may control thise value. The DrawCanvas applet supports the parameter jpeg_quality. Example: <param name="jpeg_quality" value="50">

WDC FAQ
JPEG (pronounced "jay-peg") is a standardized image compression mechanism. JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group, the original name of the committee that wrote the standard. JPEG is designed for compressing either full-color or gray-scale images of natural, real-world scenes. It works well on photographs, naturalistic artwork, and similar material; not so well on lettering, simple cartoons, or line drawings.

JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group. It is also often used to refer to an image format developed by this group. JPEG offers superior data compression for photographic images. By photographic images, we mean real life images take with a camera. Its compression ratio for photographic images is one of the highest among popular image formats. However, JPEG does have some issues with non-photographic images, like a graphics chart or a cartoon picture.

Joint Photographic Experts Group; when an image is saved in jpeg-format, the file size is compressed (not the actual size of the image), but the process involves a loss in image quality. Most image editing softwares allow you to choose the compression factor (and thus the loss in image quality), and some softwares allow you to see the effect of the compression before you save.

Why do my GIF files look bad when converted to JPEG?

ThumbsPlus FAQ
The JPEG format is designed to compress real-world 24-bit color images. GIF files have already been reduced (usually by dithering) to 256-color (8-bit), so most of the original color information is lost. When they are converted to JPEG, the sharp transitions between neighboring pixels are not handled very well. The Smoothing option in the Save JPEG Options dialog box may improve the situation somewhat. ThumbsPlus quickly dithers 24-bit images for display on 8-bit displays.

How come my JPEG files seem less clear when I edit them and save them many times?

ThumbsPlus FAQ
JPEG format should not be used for "works in progress." Re-saving JPEG files introduces another generation of loss error. For my own stuff, I always save as TIFF (LZW-compressed) during interim steps, and only convert to JPEG for external release (i.e., to a Web page). ThumbsPlus provides the option to produce progressive JPEG files, but this format is not yet widely supported. It is useful in specific situations (i.e.

Why do my JPEG files seem less clear when I edit them and save them many times?

ThumbsPlus FAQ General Information
When you are saving as a JPEG, make sure you are not saving the file using the Use Original Quality option or that you are not smoothing the image. When saving the JPEG, you will receive a screen that reads Save JPEG Options. Make sure the Use Original Quality option is not checked and the settings on this screen are 75% Quality and 0% Smoothing. This will give you the smallest, prettiest JPEG image. These settings will now be the default jpg saving options.

Why do my JPEG files turn grayscale whenever I reduce them down to 256 colors?

This is because the JPEG format supports only 24-bit color or 8-bit grayscale. You cannot do any color reduction in the JPEG format. If your source images are 8 bits or less and you want to save them as JPEGs, you can set them at 24 bits by choosing Palette > Set Pixel Depth > 24 bits = 17 Million RGB colors.

bull; What are the differences between eps, tif, jpeg, gif, and wmf files?

ImagePlus Quality Printing, Inc. - FAQs
The best file formats for professional printing are eps and tif. They're high-quality, high-resolution and not lossy. (Lossy formats degrade and lose pixel information every time you open them. Usually it's not a noticeable thing, but over time it can be a problem. Jpegs are lossy.) Eps and tif formats can also be used with spot colors while jpeg and gif cannot. Plus, jpeg and gif were created mainly for use on the internet, so they usually emphasize size over quality.
