LICENSE
A PostScript version of this document is available by FTP
at ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/jf.ps.gz. There is also a
plain text version at ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/jf.txt.
gz, but it is missing the gures.
The TIFF 6.0 le format specication can be obtained by
FTP from ftp://ftp.sgi.com/graphics/tiff/TIFF6.ps.gz. The
JPEG incorporation scheme found in the TIFF 6.0 spec of
3-June-92 has a number of serious problems.
IJG does not recommend use of the TIFF 6.0 design (TIFF
Compression tag 6).
Instead, we recommend the JPEG design proposed by
TIFF Technical Note #2 (Compression tag 7). Copies of
this Note can be obtained from ftp.sgi.com or from ftp://
ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/. It is expected that the next
revision of the TIFF spec will replace the 6.0 JPEG design
with the Note’s design.
Although IJG’s own code does not support TIFF/JPEG,
the free libtiff library uses our library to implement TIFF/
JPEG per the Note. libtiff is available from ftp://ftp.sgi.
com/graphics/tiff/.
ARCHIVE LOCATIONS
The “ofcial” archive site for this software is ftp.uu.net
(Internet address 192.48.96.9). The most recent released
version can always be found there in directory graphics/
jpeg. This particular version will be archived as ftp://ftp.
uu.net/graphics/jpeg/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz.
If you don’t have direct Internet access, UUNET’s archives
are also available via UUCP; contact help@uunet.uu.net
for information on retrieving les that way.
Numerous Internet sites maintain copies of the UUNET
les. However, only ftp.uu.net is guaranteed to have the
latest ofcial version.
You can also obtain this software in DOS-compatible “zip
archive format from the SimTel archives (ftp://ftp.simtel.
net/pub/simtelnet/msdos/graphics/), or on CompuServe in
the Graphics Support forum (GO CIS:GRAPHSUP), library
12 JPEG Tools”. Again, these versions may sometimes
lag behind the ftp.uu.net release.
The JPEG FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) article is a
useful source of general information about JPEG. It is
updated constantly and therefore is not included in this
distribution. The FAQ is posted every two weeks to
Usenet newsgroups comp.graphics.misc, news.answers,
and other groups.
It is available on the World Wide Web at http://www.faqs.
org/faqs/jpeg-faq/ and other news.answers archive sites,
including the ofcial news.answers archive at rtfm.mit.
edu: ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news.answers/jpeg-
faq/.
If you don’t have Web or FTP access, send e-mail to mail-

RELATED SOFTWARE
Numerous viewing and image manipulation programs
now support JPEG. (Quite a few of them use this library
to do so.) The JPEG FAQ described above lists some of
the more popular free and shareware viewers, and tells
where to obtain them on Internet.
If you are on a Unix machine, we highly recommend Jef
Poskanzer’s free PBMPLUS software, which provides
many useful operations on PPM-format image les. In
particular, it can convert PPM images to and from a
wide range of other formats, thus making cjpeg/djpeg
considerably more useful. The latest version is distributed
by the NetPBM group, and is available from numerous
sites, notably ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/graphics/graphics/
packages/NetPBM/.
Unfortunately PBMPLUS/NETPBM is not nearly as portable
as the IJG software is; you are likely to have difculty
making it work on any non-Unix machine.
A different free JPEG implementation, written by the
PVRG group at Stanford,
is available from ftp://havefun.stanford.edu/pub/jpeg/.
This program is designed for research and experimentation
rather than production use; it is slower, harder to use, and
less portable than the IJG code, but it is easier to read
and modify. Also, the PVRG code supports lossless
JPEG, which we do not. (On the other hand, it doesn’t do
progressive JPEG.)
FILE FORMAT WARS
Some JPEG programs produce les that are not compatible
with our library.
The root of the problem is that the ISO JPEG committee
failed to specify a concrete le format. Some vendors
“lled in the blanks” on their own, creating proprietary
formats that no one else could read. (For example, none
of the early commercial JPEG implementations for the
Macintosh were able to exchange compressed les.)
The le format we have adopted is called JFIF (see
REFERENCES). This format has been agreed to by a
number of major commercial JPEG vendors, and it has
become the de facto standard. JFIF is a minimal or low
end” representation.
We recommend the use of TIFF/JPEG (TIFF revision 6.0
as modied by TIFF Technical Note #2) for high end”
applications that need to record a lot of additional data
about an image. TIFF/JPEG is fairly new and not yet
widely supported, unfortunately.
The upcoming JPEG Part 3 standard denes a le format
called SPIFF.
SPIFF is interoperable with JFIF, in the sense that most
JFIF decoders should be able to read the most common
variant of SPIFF. SPIFF has some technical advantages
over JFIF, but its major claim to fame is simply that it is an
ofcial standard rather than an informal one. At this point
it is unclear whether SPIFF will supersede JFIF or whether
JFIF will remain the de-facto standard. IJG intends to
support SPIFF once the standard is frozen, but we have
not decided whether it should become our default output
format or not.
(In any case, our decoder will remain capable of reading
JFIF indenitely.)
Various proprietary le formats incorporating JPEG
compression also exist.
We have little or no sympathy for the existence of these
formats. Indeed, one of the original reasons for developing
this free software was to help force convergence on
common, open format standards for JPEG les. Don’t use
a proprietary le format!
TO DO
The major thrust for v7 will probably be improvement of
visual quality.
The current method for scaling the quantization tables
is known not to be very good at low Q values. We
also intend to investigate block boundary smoothing,
“poor man’s variable quantization”, and other means
of improving quality-vs-le-size performance without
sacricing compatibility.
In future versions, we are considering supporting some
of the upcoming JPEG Part 3 extensions --- principally,
variable quantization and the SPIFF le format.
As always, speeding things up is of great interest.
