- Description
- It is a JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) creation that is based on 24-bit color pallette and uses a lossy compression algorithm for digital photography.
- 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.
