HEIF at a glance
HEIF
HEIF was developed by MPEG and built on the ISO Base Media File Format lineage, which helps explain why it feels more like a modern media container for images than a simple legacy bitmap file.

EPUB
EPUB grew out of the digital publishing standards ecosystem and later moved under W3C stewardship, reinforcing its identity as an open publishing format rather than a vendor-specific storefront file.
