You should specify the most suitable format according to how you want to use the image on which application. Available file formats vary by application and computer (Windows or Macintosh). See below for the characteristics of each image file format. BMP (Standard File Extension: .bmp) A standard file format for Windows. BMP is often selected for images that are used only on Windows. JPEG (Standard File Extension: .jpg) A file format often used on websites and for digital camera images. JPEG features high compression rates. JPEG images slightly degrade every time they are saved, and cannot be returned to their original state. JPEG is not available for black and white images. Exif (Standard File Extension: .jpg) A file format supported by many digital cameras. It adds information such as the date of image capture, camera model, shutter speed, shooting mode and comments to JPEG files. The file format version must be Exif 2.2 or later in order to print on a Direct Print compatible printer.
