- Description
- The SCR file format, standing for Sun Rasterfile, is a raster graphics file format developed by Sun Microsystems. It is primarily used for storing bitmap images on SunOS/Solaris operating systems. The format supports various color depths, including 1, 8, 24, and 32-bit color images, allowing it to handle both grayscale and color images. SCR files are notable for their simplicity and were widely used in SunOS environments for graphical data storage and manipulation.
- 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.
