- The KFX file format, associated with Kofax Group 4, is primarily used for storing scanned document images. It employs a compression method based on the Group 4 fax encoding, which is efficient for compressing black and white images, making it suitable for archiving documents. KFX files are part of the solutions offered by Kofax for document capture and management, aiming to optimize the process of converting paper documents into electronic format for easy storage, retrieval, and management. This format is particularly popular in industries where high-volume document scanning and archiving are common, such as legal, financial, and governmental sectors.
- A JPEG file is an image saved in a compressed graphic format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It supports up to 24-bit color and is compressed using lossy compression, which may noticeably reduce the image quality if high amounts of compression are used. JPEG files are commonly used for storing digital photos and web graphics.
