When posting photos or images online, JPG images are ideal since the file size is minimized without sacrificing quality. In addition, they’re handy for e-mailing preview images to clients and printing high-resolution artwork and photographs.

Window printing , illustrations, and graphs are ideal for web graphics in PNG format. Besides shrinking to a small file size, they also support limited colors and elements. An advantage of PNGs is that they can be completely transparent, so you can place illustrations on top of backgrounds easily. When multiple versions of an image will be edited and saved, PNG is also a great option.

Graphic design, posters, and flyers benefit greatly from PDF images. If you intend to make images available online for download, PDF images are a great option. With PDFs, you can easily print and save designs and booklets because your images are combined into one file.

Printing is ideal for TIFF images, especially for photography, magazines, booklets, and other multipage designs. They are effective file extensions because they are capable of preserving high-quality image information.
