What is a jpeg file: JPEG is a file compression technique which
enables image file sizes to be reduced by a considerable amount
without any noticeable loss of detail. It is a popular format compared
to other formats, this is due to the fact that the file takes up less
memory.
Jpeg definition: Jpeg is pronounced "jay-peg" this JPEG format
has become very popular, this is due to it's ability to save an image
in a user selected variable compression range. Different image
quality for various images, for photograph printing, web images and
emails, Jpeg can handle all of them. This format would not be
suitable for text. When an image is saved some of the picture detail
is lost, this is called lossy compression, the more the compression
the more the detail that is lost.
