Convert ERF to JBG

The ERF file extension, short for Epson Raw File, is a proprietary format used by Epson digital cameras to store uncompressed, raw image data. Developed by Epson, this format retains all original sensor data, allowing photographers to produce high-quality images with extensive post-processing flexibility. ERF files can be opened and edited using specialized software like Adobe Photoshop and Epson PhotoRAW. Despite their large size, ERF files are favored by professionals for their superior image quality and editing capabilities.

The JBG file extension stands for Joint Bi-level Image Group, a format developed for efficient lossless compression of binary images, primarily used in fax transmissions. Introduced by the Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group, JBG files store 1-bit raster images and offer superior compression compared to older standards like CCITT Group 3 and 4. Although initially popular for fax machines, the format has largely been superseded by JBIG2, which provides even better compression.
