Convert AVS to JBIG

The AVS (Application Visualization System) X Image file format, developed by Stardent Computer for UNIX systems, is a high-end raster image format designed for scientific visualization and complex data representation. Its true-color images with an alpha channel provide superior image integrity and transparency capabilities, ensuring accurate and clear visual data. Despite the emergence of newer formats, AVS X Image's uncompressed nature maintains its relevance in professional IT applications.

The JBIG (Joint Bi-level Image Group) file extension, standardized as ISO/IEC 11544 and ITU-T T.82 in 1993, is a lossless image compression format primarily used for binary images, such as those in fax transmissions. Developed by the Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group, JBIG offers significant compression efficiency over previous standards, achieving up to 50% better compression than Fax Group 4. Its history dates back to 1988 when ISO and CCITT collaborated to create a unified standard for bi-level image coding.
