- Description
- The g3n file type is associated with Imaging Fax, a format predominantly used for storing fax document images. It is based on the Group 3 fax standard, which is a specification for sending black and white images via telephone lines. G3n files are designed for efficient transmission and storage, utilizing compression techniques to minimize file size while maintaining legibility. This format is particularly useful in business and telecommunication environments where fax documents are still prevalent.
- A GIF file is an image file often used for web graphics. It may contain up to 256 indexed colors with a color palette that may be a predefined set of colors or may be adapted to the colors in the image. GIF files are saved in a lossless format, meaning the clarity of the image is not compromised with GIF compression.
