JP2 at a glance

JP2

Convert to JP2 when image preservation, high bit depth, or institutional-quality digitization matter more than ordinary browser ubiquity.

It is a strong target for archival masters and specialist imaging repositories.

AIFC at a glance

AIFC

Convert to AIFC when maintaining compatibility with legacy Mac, sampler, or media workflows that explicitly expect compressed AIFF-family files.

It is useful for archive migration and recovery of older multimedia assets.

For new distribution or production pipelines, AIFF, WAV, or M4A are usually more practical.
