- Description
- JBIG is a lossless compression file format that was created for the fax machine; it can be used by other image file formats. The files created by JBIG format are smaller compared to G3 and G4 file formats.
- The HPGL file format, standing for HP Graphics Language Plotter File, is a specialized file type developed by Hewlett-Packard. It is primarily used for controlling plotter devices, which are printers that draw images with lines instead of dots, making them ideal for engineering and architectural drawings. HPGL files contain a series of two-letter instruction codes followed by parameters that direct the plotter's drawing operations, such as moving to a point, drawing a line, or selecting a pen.
