About JXL Format

JPEG XL

The true next-generation successor designed to replace JPEG, PNG, and GIF entirely.

Overview

JPEG XL (JXL) is the most advanced image format currently in existence. Unlike WebP and AVIF, which are derived from video codecs, JPEG XL was designed from the ground up specifically for still images. This gives it unique superpowers, such as the ability to losslessly re-compress existing JPEG files to be 20% smaller without losing a single bit of data. It offers best-in-class lossless compression (beating PNG), best-in-class lossy compression (beating JPEG), and supports features needed for professional workflows like CMYK, layers, and ultra-high resolutions. However, its adoption has been slowed by political battles, most notably Google Chrome's decision to remove support in 2022, though Apple has since added full support in Safari 17.

Technical Details

JPEG XL uses a combination of two coding modes: VarDCT (Variable Block-size DCT) for lossy images and Modular Mode for lossless/artistic images. Its 'killer feature' is legacy JPEG transcoding: it can take the DCT coefficients from an old JPEG file and repackage them into the more efficient JXL container. This process is reversible, meaning you can convert your entire JPEG library to JXL to save 20% space, and convert them back to the exact original byte-for-byte JPEGs later if needed. It also supports 'progressive decoding' far better than any other format, allowing a high-quality preview to appear almost instantly.

History

The JPEG committee began the call for proposals for a next-gen standard in 2017. The final standard (ISO/IEC 18181) was published in 2021/2022, combining the best parts of Google's PIK and Cloudinary's FUIF proposals. Despite being technically superior, its rollout hit a wall when the Chrome team removed the experimental flag in late 2022, citing lack of ecosystem interest. However, Apple's adoption in 2023 (iOS 17/macOS 14) has breathed new life into the format.

About JNG Format

JPEG Network Graphics

JPEG compression with PNG transparency.

Overview

JNG (JPEG Network Graphics) is a sub-format of the MNG animation format. It was designed to combine the high compression of JPEG with the alpha transparency features of PNG, something that standard JPEG lacks. It essentially wraps a JPEG stream and a mask channel in a chunk-based container.

Technical Details

A JNG file structure mimics PNG. It uses a 8-byte signature and chunks. The image data is split into a color chunk (JDAT) which contains JPEG data, and an alpha chunk (IDAT) which contains PNG-compressed alpha mask. This allows for 'lossy color, lossless alpha' images, which is very space-efficient for photographic sprites.

History

Created by the PNG Development Group around 2001 as part of the MNG (Multiple-image Network Graphics) project. It failed to gain traction as MNG was rejected by Mozilla and Chromium in favor of APNG and later WebP.

Common Use Cases

  • Historical Web Design: Used briefly in the early 2000s for transparent photos.

Advantages

  • Lossy + Alpha

Limitations

  • Obsolete
