Convert GIF to JPEG
What is GIF?
GIF
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) uses LZW lossless compression with 8-bit color palette (256 colors). Supports animation through multiple frames, transparency (binary: on/off), and interlacing. Maximum resolution 65,535×65,535 pixels. Ideal for simple graphics, logos, and short animations. Poor for photographs due to color limitations. Widely supported for web use since 1987.
- GIF uses lossless compression for perfect quality image storage
- Lossless source ensures maximum quality for JPEG conversion
- Alpha channel transparency requires background color for JPEG conversion
- Limited to 256-color palette—poor for photographs, good for graphics
What is JPEG?
JPEG
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) uses lossy DCT-based compression, optimized for photographs with millions of colors. Supports 24-bit color depth. Quality vs size tradeoff adjustable via compression level. No transparency support. EXIF metadata for camera data. Universal web and camera format. Converting between image formats preserves or re-encodes pixel data.
- JPEG uses lossy compression for efficient image storage
- Lossy compression means conversion to GIF preserves but cannot restore quality
- Opaque image data converts to GIF without utilizing transparency features
- DCT-based compression removes high-frequency visual data
- Supports 24-bit RGB color (16.7 million colors)
