- Description
- The OAZ Fax file format, denoted by the extension .oaz, is associated with a now-obsolete faxing software once popular for transmitting documents over telephone lines. These files contain digital representations of faxed documents, including text and images, allowing for electronic storage and retrieval. The technology behind OAZ files was primarily used before the widespread adoption of email and online document sharing, making it a relic of early digital communication methods. Due to its obsolescence, finding software capable of opening or converting OAZ files might be challenging.
- 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.
