- Description
- A JP2 file is a compressed bitmap image created using JPEG 2000 Core Coding. It incorporates a wavelet compression algorithm instead of Digital Cosine Transform (DCT) compression, which is used by standard JPEG images. JP2 files can be stored using lossy and lossless compression.
- An EMZ file contains an Enhanced Metafile (.EMF file) that has been compressed with the .GZIP compression algorithm. It is compressed to reduce storage space and be more easily transferred between applications. EMZ files are typically used by Microsoft programs such as Visio and the Office suite, which includes Word and PowerPoint.
