Convert JPE to G3

The JPE file extension stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group. It is a widely used image format known for its efficient compression and high quality, making it ideal for digital photography and web use. Originating in the late 1980s, the JPE format was developed to enable the effective storage and transmission of photographic images. Its primary purpose is to reduce file size without significantly compromising image quality, thereby optimizing storage and facilitating faster file transfers in computer technology contexts.

The G3 file extension refers to the CCITT Group 3 Fax Image, a standardized format developed by the Consultative Committee for International Telegraphy and Telephony (CCITT), now known as ITU-T. This format was created to efficiently compress black-and-white fax documents for transmission over telephone lines. It employs a method called Modified Huffman Coding for data compression, enabling reduced transmission time and bandwidth usage. G3 was widely adopted in the 1980s and 1990s as the primary standard for fax transmissions, ensuring compatibility across different fax machines and systems.
