JPG - JPEG image
JPEG image format is a lossy compressed file format. This makes it useful for storing pho-
tographs at a smaller size than a BMP. JPG is a common choice for use on the Web
because it is compressed. For storing line drawings, text, and iconic graphics at a smaller
file size, GIF or PNG are better choices because they are lossless.

MHT - Web Page with Image
MHTML is similar to an HTML Web page, except that the HTML and images are combined
into a single file. MHT is useful for quickly sharing an image along with simple links/hotspots
with just one file and is most useful in e-mail, where the Web page, complete with images, is
inserted directly into the body of the e-mail in Outlook and Outlook Express.

SNAG - Snagit Capture File
The SNAG file format is an Editor-only format that retains vector-based objects. If captures

vector objects will be flattened and made a permanent part of the image. Once flattened, the
vector objects cannot be separated from the image.
