Mona Lisa

Electronic Formats concerned with Image Data.

See also:

Other lists of formats:

Contents

Animated image formats

See also Animation, Video.

Other image formats supporting animation, but not usually thought of as animation formats, include AVIF, HEIF, JPEG XL, JPX, and WebP.

Character-based graphics

See Character encoding for details of character sets, some of which include graphical or line-and-box-drawing characters.

Colors

(Profiles, color spaces, palettes, swatches)

Compression

Graphics compression algorithms, special-purpose compressed graphics formats, etc.

See also Compression, for general-purpose algorithms.

Icon, Cursor, and Avatar files

(Formats often used for icons, cursors, avatars, thumbnails, etc.)

Metadata Formats

Online/Networked Formats

(while any image format can be used online and through a network, these are specifically designed to be accessed remotely via an API)

Programming languages

(Graphic-specific programming languages; see Programming Languages for general languages)

Raster Graphics Formats

Skins / Themes

(Used to give custom styles, appearances, and themes to software; might be bundled with Icon, Cursor, and Avatar files consistent with the theme)

Software

(Applications, utilities, libraries, and APIs for graphic manipulation)

Refer to Graphics software.

Vector Graphics Formats

(Including most "metafile" formats. Vector formats often support embedded raster images, and other objects that aren't actually vectors.)

See also:

Miscellaneous or Uncategorized

(Formats which don't fit into another category, or still need to be categorized)
