Explain how different types of graphic images relate tofile
JPEG
Jpeg (meaning ‘Joint Photographic Experts Group’) is a very popular file
format. This type of file format may be a very popular methodology of
lossy Compression for digital pictures. because it is lossy Compression,
it permits the photographs to be manually compressed and so saves
space for storing, however, it loses a number of the standard. The JPEG
compression works best with digital pictures and paintings because the
edges are power tools and tones are softer. further, like this, the file is
supported on all major operating systems.
However, JPEG isn't fine fitted to graphic pictures and line drawings
wherever the contrasts are sharp and colors dramatically amendment.
there's additionally a lack of support for things like the transparency that
limits the utilization of the file, further because of the lack of support for
animation. JPEG is very smart for websites because of its small file size
permitting the image to be uploaded quickly.
PNG
PNG (meaning ‘Portable Network Graphics’) is a Raster based file
, format. PNG is the most used lossless compression image file sort on
the web, and being lossless Compression, the image quality is healthier
than that of JPEG. PNG conjointly supports palette-based pictures of
twenty-four bit RGB and 32-bit RGBA colors, grayscale with or while not
alpha channel pictures, and full-colour non-palette-based RGB(A)
pictures with or while not alpha channels. PNG files are terribly helpful to

graphic artists.
It does, however, lack support for animation. PNG also can have giant
file sizes looking on the dimension of the image, that compared to JPEG,
can take up a lot of storage. because of PNG supporting transparency,
it's very good as a sprite program for games, and alternative digital
graphic pictures as plenty of image editing programs create use of
transparency.
PSD

you'll store. PSD files will store up to 30k by 30k image. there's
additionally a PSB file that is an associate extension to PSD, which may
store up to 300k by 300k image. Another advantage to PSD files over
files like JPEG is that the format is kept as lossless compression, so no
information is removed throughout the saving process permitting a high
res image to stay a high res image when saving.
PSD files, however, will only be opened in Adobe programs, which
means the file must be regenerated if it's to be opened in another
