About formats

JBG is a file extension for images compressed using the JBIG (Joint Bi-level Image experts Group) standard, formally ITU-T Recommendation T.82, completed in 1993 as a successor to the Group 3 and Group 4 fax compression standards. JBIG compression is designed for bi-level (black and white) images but can also handle grayscale and limited-color images by encoding each bit plane separately. The algorithm uses a form of arithmetic coding guided by an adaptive context model: for each pixel, the encoder examines a template of surrounding already-coded pixels to build a probability estimate, then feeds this estimate to a QM-coder (a variant of the Q-coder arithmetic coder) that produces a highly efficient binary output. JBIG achieves 20-40% better compression than Group 4 on typical document images, with the improvement being even larger on halftoned photographs and images with gradual density transitions where Group 4's simple run-length approach is less effective. The standard supports progressive encoding, where a low-resolution version of the image is transmitted first and progressively refined — useful for fax-like applications where the receiver can begin displaying the image before the full-resolution data arrives. One advantage is superior compression of documents containing halftone images: newspapers, magazines, and marketing materials that mix text with photographic halftones compress dramatically better with JBIG than with Group 3/4. The standard's ITU-T backing ensures it is implemented in document imaging hardware and software worldwide. JBG files are supported by ImageMagick and various document imaging tools.

JPS (JPEG Stereo) is a stereoscopic 3D image format that stores a left-eye and right-eye view pair within a single JPEG-compressed file, developed by VRex, Inc. around 1997 for use with stereoscopic displays and viewers. A JPS file is technically a standard JPEG file containing a side-by-side stereo pair — the left and right perspective images are placed horizontally adjacent within a single frame, with the full image width being twice the individual view width. The file uses standard JPEG compression and can be opened by any JPEG-compatible viewer (which will show the side-by-side pair as a single wide image), but stereo-aware applications parse the image into its left and right components for proper 3D presentation. JPS files can be viewed with dedicated stereoscopic software, anaglyph viewers (generating red-cyan images for colored glasses), autostereoscopic displays, VR headsets, and hardware like NVIDIA 3D Vision or passive 3D monitors. The format gained renewed interest with the consumer 3D photography boom of the late 2000s and early 2010s, when cameras like the Fujifilm FinePix Real 3D W1/W3 captured stereo pairs natively. One advantage is backward compatibility: because JPS uses standard JPEG encoding, the files work with existing JPEG infrastructure — they can be transmitted, stored, thumbnailed, and even viewed (as flat side-by-side images) without any special software. The format's simplicity is another practical strength — no specialized container or codec is required, and any tool that can crop and display JPEG images can extract individual views. JPS files are supported by StereoPhoto Maker, ImageMagick, and various 3D photo viewers.
