Convert G4 to WEBP

The G4 file extension, standing for CCITT Group 4 Fax Image, is a specialized format used primarily for storing black-and-white facsimile (fax) images. Its origins trace back to the Consultative Committee for International Telegraphy and Telephony (CCITT), now known as the ITU-T, which developed the Group 4 standard in the 1980s to improve fax transmission efficiency over digital networks. This format employs a high compression ratio to reduce file size while maintaining image quality, making it ideal for archiving documents and transmitting faxes in professional and business environments.

The WebP file extension stands for "Web Picture", a modern image format developed by Google. It aims to reduce file size without compromising quality, making it ideal for web use. Introduced in 2010, WebP supports both lossless and lossy compression, which enhances web performance and speeds up page loading times. This efficiency makes it a preferred choice for web developers and IT specialists focused on optimizing website performance.
