- Description
- Scalable Vector Graphics (.SVG) files store graphic images in XML format and may contain gradients, transparency, filters and animations. SVG files are compressed using GZIP compression.
- Group 4 (G4) used for black and white lossless compression to maintain high-quality images, commonly used in TIFF format compression by fax machines. A picture is seen as black dots and lines on a blank page; the fewer the dots and lines are, the lesser the file size.
