What image formats are supported by GraphApp?
The following image formats are supported: • PNG • JPEG (normal and progressive) • GIF (87a and 89a) PNG is the best cross-platform lossless image format available today. It outperforms GIF in compression ratios, progressive download speed over the internet, and has a greater range of pixel depths available, from 1 bit per pixel to 48 bits per pixel. GraphApp uses PNG to store its portable fonts. PNG relies on ZLIB for some of its compression requirements. JPEG is the de facto standard for storing lossy image data, such as photographs. GIF is the outmoded image format developed by Compuserve bask in the 1980’s. GIF is a service mark of Compuserve. It’s an old format these days. PNG and MNG give better performance so you should use them if you can.
