NAME

       jng - JPEG Network Graphics (JNG) sub-format

DESCRIPTION

       JNG  (JPEG Network Graphics) is a sub-format of the MNG (Multiple-image
       Network Graphics) format. As with MNG it extends on the features of the
       popular PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image-format.

       This sub-format was designed to support a lossy compression-method.  It
       is based completely on  the  JPEG  specification.  It  adds  the  high-
       compression ratios of JPEG for photographic images.

       As  a member of the Network Graphics family, JNG was deemed adequate as
       a stand-alone  format  as  it  extends  the  JPEG  format  with  color-
       correction and transparency features.
