About this document

Understanding PNG Image Format by Peter John Teves is a document available to read on EtoBox.

PNG uses a non-lossy compression method and allows for transparency, making it suitable for blending images into documents. JPEG uses a lossy compression that supports over 16 million colors, making it best for full-color photos but unable to have transparency effects. GIF supports transparency like PNG but can only display 256 colors, so it is mostly used for low resolution images, logos, and simple animations in websites and emails rather than printed documents.
