- Description
- This format is used to compress TIFF images when sending them via fax machines. This format helps reduce the data transmission time. Group 3 eliminates redundant data during compression in order to reduce file size. The standard 10:1 compression ratio may be increased to the user's preferences, but it can lead to a significant loss of image quality.
- It is a JPEG file extension used by Sony digital cameras to save lower resolution images for sending on email. It is saved side by side with the high-quality JPG file.
