The Different Types of Picture File Extension

The document discusses 10 common picture file extensions: 1) JPEG is commonly used on the web and for documents but quality decreases with file size reduction. 2) PNG is good for web pages but not print; quality is maintained but resolution is low. 3) GIF is commonly used for animations and quick loading images over quality. 4) TIFF maintains quality and is used for print photos. 5) PSD is made in Photoshop and contains layers but uses raster images. 6) PDF can be viewed anywhere and allows further editing while maintaining quality. 7) EPS is vector format for high resolution print graphics. 8) AI is the preferred format and Illustrator produces vector artwork

THE 10 TYPES OF DIFFERENT
PICTURE FILE EXTENSIONS
1ST TYPE OF PICTURE FILE
EXTENSION

1. JPEG (or JPG) - Joint Photographic


Experts Group
JPEGs might be the most common file
type you run across on the web, and
more than likely the kind of image that is
in your company's MS Word version of its
letterhead. JPEGs are known for their
"lossy" compression, meaning that the
quality of the image decreases as the file
size decreases.
2ND TYPE OF PICTURE
FILE EXTENSION

2. PNG - Portable Network


Graphics
PNGs are amazing for interactive
documents such as web pages but
are not suitable for print. While
PNGs are "lossless," meaning you
can edit them and not lose
quality, they are still low
resolution.
3RD TYPE OF PICTURE
FILE EXTENSION

3. GIF - Graphics Interchange Format


GIFs are most common in their
animated form, which are all the rage
on Tumblr pages and in banner
ads.This is a common file type for web
projects where an image needs to load
very quickly, as opposed to one that
needs to retain a higher level of
quality.
4th TYPE OF PICTURE FILE
EXTENSION
4. TIFF - Tagged Image File
A TIFF is a large raster file that
doesn't lose quality. This file type is
known for using "lossless
compression," meaning the original
image data is maintained regardless
of how often you might copy, re-
save, or compress the original file.
And TIFF files are also commonly
used when saving photographs for
print.
5TH TYPE OF PICTURE FILE
EXTENSION
5. PSD - Photoshop Document
PSDs are files that are created and saved in
Adobe Photoshop, the most popular
graphics editing software ever. This type of
file contains "layers" that make modifying
the image much easier to handle. This is
also the program that generates the raster
file types mentioned above.
The largest disadvantage to PSDs is that
Photoshop works with raster images as
opposed to vector images.
6TH TYPE OF PICTURE
FILE EXTENSION

6. PDF - Portable Document Format


PDFs were invented by Adobe with the
goal of capturing and reviewing rich
information from any application, on any
computer, with anyone, anywhere.If a
designer saves your vector logo in PDF
format, you can view it without any
design editing software (as long as you
have downloaded the free Acrobat
Reader software), and they have the
ability to use this file to make further
manipulations.
7TH TYPE OF PICTURE
FILE EXTENSION

7. EPS - Encapsulated Postscript


EPS is a file in vector format that has
been designed to produce high-
resolution graphics for print. Almost any
kind of design software can create an
EPS.
The EPS extension is more of a universal
file type (much like the PDF) that can be
used to open vector-based artwork in
any design editor, not just the more
common Adobe products. This
safeguards file transfers to designers
that are not yet utilizing Adobe
products, but may be using Corel Draw
or Quark.
8TH TYPE OF PICTURE
FILE EXTENSION
8. AI - Adobe Illustrator Document
AI is, by far, the image format most
preferred by designers and the most
reliable type of file format for using
images in all types of projects from web to
print, etc.
Adobe Illustrator is the industry standard
for creating artwork from scratch and
therefore more than likely the program in
which your logo was originally rendered.
Illustrator produces vector artwork, the
easiest type of file to manipulate. It can
also create all of the aforementioned file
types. Pretty cool stuff! It is by far the
best tool in any designer's arsenal.
9TH TYPE OF PICTURE
FILE EXTENSION

9. INDD - Adobe InDesign Document


INDDs (InDesign Document) are files
that are created and saved in Adobe
InDesign. InDesign is commonly used
to create larger publications, such as
newspapers, magazines and eBooks.
Files from both Adobe Photoshop and
Illustrator can be combined in InDesign
to produce content rich designs that
feature advanced typography,
embedded graphics, page content,
formatting information and other
sophisticated layout-related options .
10TH TYPE OF PICTURE FILE
EXTENSION

10. RAW - Raw Image Formats


A RAW image is the least-processed
image type on this list -- it's often
the first format a picture inherits
when it's created. When you snap a
photo with your camera, it's saved
immediately in a raw file format.
Only when you upload your media to
a new device and edit it using image
software is it saved using one of the
image extensions explained above.
RAW images are valuable because
they capture every element of a
photo without processing and losing
small visual details.
And that is the End of our presentation
