.jpg
The most common format. Due to the high compression, jpg is very popular in hobby photography. In addition, the embedding of paths is possible. However, the high compression results in losses in the representation.
.psd
The own format of the image processing software Adobe Photoshop. All available image information is stored. This includes layers, channels, and vectors. Disadvantages for the dispatch are the information files very large files.
.tif
The very versatile format is preferred by companies in the provision of press photos. As with the format .jpg, it is also possible for .tif files to embed paths.
.png
Like the .gif format, .png also supports transparency and is therefore very popular on the Internet. In addition, the format has proved to be optimal if images are to be compressed without losses. However, not all applications support Portable Networks Graphics.
.gif
These pictures are widely used on the Internet. With the Graphics Interchange format, not only simple animations, but also background information can be displayed transparently. However, .gif images are not suitable for high-quality product graphics due to the low number of only 256 colors.
.bmp
Images in the Windows Bitmap format, many commonly known as Windows Paint, are rarely used on the Internet due to low compression.
.raw
Means translated from the English “raw” and thus is already said a lot. The raw data has to be reworked and the files are correspondingly large. .raw does not refer to a specific format, but is a collective term for the raw data of different manufacturers.
