🌈 JNG(5) — the manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, sit DOWN, because we're talking about jng — also known as JPEG Network Graphics (JNG), and she's a whole sub-format 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

jng — JPEG Network Graphics (JNG) sub-format 🦋

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like, JNG — that's JPEG Network Graphics — is a sub-format of the MNG format, aka Multiple-image Network Graphics. and just like MNG does, she extends on the features of the super popular PNG — you know, Portable Network Graphics — image-format. family business fr fr 👑

this sub-format was literally designed to support a lossy compression-method. no cap. she's based completely on the JPEG specification, and what she brings to the table is the high-compression ratios of JPEG for photographic images. iconic behavior 📸🔥

and as a member of the Network Graphics family, JNG was deemed adequate as a stand-alone format — because she extends the JPEG format with color-correction and transparency features. the way she said "I can do both" 😭💖
