File format
Various destinations for an image, such as other software or a computer screen display, require
certain file formats because of the software language or properties of the device. Some common file
formats are JPEG and GIF, usually used for Web page display, and TIFF, often used for page layout
programs and printing.
The file formats supported by Photoshop CS4 are listed in Table 1.2.
