JPEG is the standard file format for image compression. It is an image format that reduces the size of the original file. By saving in this format, the image gains a lossy compression - in which you lose the sharpness of the original image (blurrier). JPEG supports up to 24 bpp, which is 16 777 216 distinct colours. The file size of a JPEG file varies according to the number of bits used in that image (dimensions of the image).
This file type is saved under the file extension name: .jpg, .jpeg, .jfif
The following is an example of a JPEG file:
