JBIG2 at a glance

JBIG2

JBIG and JBIG2 belong to the branch of imaging standards aimed at scanned monochrome or mostly bitonal content rather than rich photographic colour imaging.

CAP at a glance

Digital photography fragmented into many manufacturer-specific raw formats because camera makers optimized for their own sensors, metadata, and software ecosystems rather than for one shared public raw standard.
