About formats

CFF (Compact Font Format) is a font outline format developed by Adobe Systems around 1996 as a more efficient successor to the Type 1 font representation. CFF uses Type 2 charstrings — an optimized encoding that supports multiple arguments per operator, default value elision, and shared subroutines — to describe the same cubic Bezier glyph outlines as Type 1 but with substantially less storage. A typical CFF font is 20-50% smaller than its Type 1 equivalent. The format can function as a standalone font file or, more commonly, as the outline data table inside an OpenType font container (the CFF table in OTF files with PostScript outlines). CFF supports multiple fonts within a single file through its FontSet structure, sharing global subroutines across the collection to further reduce size. One advantage is compression efficiency without lossy degradation — every control point and hint is preserved exactly, just encoded more compactly. The format also inherits the full hinting capability of Type 1, including stem hints, counter hints, and alignment zones that ensure crisp rendering on low-resolution screens and printers. CFF2, an evolution introduced with OpenType 1.8, adds support for font variations (variable fonts) by allowing interpolation across multiple design axes. Broad support in PDF viewers, web browsers via OpenType, and professional design software makes CFF one of the most widely deployed outline formats in digital typography.

JPEG is one of the most widely used image formats in computing, standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group and published as ISO/IEC 10918-1 in September 1992. The .jpeg extension is functionally identical to .jpg — both contain the same JFIF or Exif-wrapped JPEG compressed image data. The format applies lossy compression using the discrete cosine transform (DCT): images are divided into 8x8 pixel blocks, transformed into frequency coefficients, quantized to discard visually less significant information, and entropy-coded for storage. The quality-to-size tradeoff is user-selectable, with typical settings producing files 10-20 times smaller than uncompressed originals at visually acceptable quality. JPEG supports 8-bit grayscale and 24-bit color, with Exif metadata carrying camera settings, GPS coordinates, timestamps, and thumbnails. One advantage is absolute universality — JPEG is readable by every image viewer, web browser, operating system, camera, phone, and printer manufactured in the past three decades, making it the safest format for sharing photographic images with any recipient. The efficient compression of continuous-tone photographic content is another core strength: JPEG consistently produces compact files from camera sensors and real-world scenes where subtle color gradients dominate. While newer formats like WebP and AVIF achieve better compression ratios, JPEG's installed base is so vast that it remains the default output of digital cameras and the most common image format on the web.
