Convert JBIG to JBG

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.

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 Although initially popular for fax machines, the format has largely been superseded by JBIG2, which provides even better compression.
