Blaze ImgConvert reads and writes the following JPEG compressed formats:
- Lossy JFIF. This is the JPEG File Interchange Format. Blaze ImgConvert supports YUV 4:4:4, 4:2:2, and 4:1:1 color spacing, and YUV 4:0:0 for grayscale.
- Lossless JFIF. This is the JPEG File Interchange Format. Blaze ImgConvert supports 8, 12, and 16-bit grayscale and 24-bit color spacing. Please note that not all applications support Lossless JPEG. Before saving a file using Lossless JPEG, make sure your reader supports it.
Both JPEG 4:4:4 and Lossless JPEG will be recognized when getting file information.
12 and 16-bit grayscale images are only supported in the Document/Medical Imaging editions.
- Progressive JPEG. This is a JFIF format that is useful for transmitting images, because the first part of the file contains the full dimensions of the image. Therefore, in a paint-while-load routine, you can display the whole image, then progressively clarify it as the rest of the file loads. Blaze ImgConvert supports YUV 4:4:4, 4:2:2, and 4:1:1 color spacing, and YUV 4:0:0 for grayscale.
- Lossy JTIF. This is the JPEG Tagged Interchange Format. Blaze ImgConvert supports YUV 4:4:4, 4:2:2, and 4:1:1 color spacing, and YUV 4:0:0 for grayscale.
- Lossless JTIF. This is the JPEG Tagged Interchange Format. Blaze ImgConvert supports 8, 12, and 16-bit grayscale and 24-bit color spacing. Please note that not all applications support Lossless JPEG. Before saving a file using Lossless JPEG, make sure your reader supports it.
Both TIFF JPEG 4:4:4 and Lossless JPEG will be recognized when getting file information.
12 and 16-bit grayscale images are only supported in the Document/Medical Imaging editions.
