SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)
The web's standard for crisp, infinite-resolution graphics built with code.
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is fundamentally different from other web image formats. Instead of storing a grid of pixels (raster), SVG stores mathematical instructions for drawing lines, curves, and shapes. This means an SVG image looks perfectly sharp whether it's displayed on a tiny smartwatch or a giant billboard. Developed by the W3C, SVG is an XML-based format, meaning the file itself is human-readable text code. This allows SVGs to be manipulated via CSS and JavaScript, making them interactive and dynamic. You can change the color of an icon on hover, animate a graph with data, or theme an entire illustration with a single line of CSS. Since its standardization in 1999 and widespread adoption in modern browsers, SVG has become the default choice for icons, logos, and simple illustrations on the web, offering smaller file sizes and better flexibility than their raster counterparts.
SVG is an application of XML (Extensible Markup Language). An SVG file contains elements like `<circle>`, `<rect>`, `<path>`, and `<text>` that describe the visual content. Because it is text-based, it compresses extremely well with GZIP or Brotli (often served as .svgz). The format supports gradients, patterns, clipping paths, and masks. It can embed raster images (like JPEGs) inside the vector file, though this negates the scalability benefits for that portion. SVG supports interactivity through event handlers (onclick, onhover) and animation via SMIL (Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language) or CSS/JavaScript. Security is a unique consideration for SVG: because it can contain scripts, SVGs from untrusted sources can pose XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) risks and must be sanitized before use.
In the late 1990s, the web needed a vector graphics format. Several companies submitted proposals to the W3C, including Adobe's PGML and Microsoft/Macromedia's VML. The W3C decided to develop a new standard that combined the best features of these proposals, resulting in SVG. SVG 1.0 became a W3C Recommendation in September 2001. However, browser support was initially poor, requiring plugins like Adobe SVG Viewer. Native support began to appear around 2005-2006 (Firefox 1.5, Opera 9) but didn't become universal until Internet Explorer 9 added support in 2011. The format has evolved with SVG 1.1 (2003) and the ongoing development of SVG 2, which aims to align closer with HTML5 and CSS3 features.
JPEG 2000 VM Uncompressed
A single-component test format for JPEG 2000 verification.
PGX is an extremely simple, uncompressed raster format created specifically for the development and testing of the JPEG 2000 standard (ISO 15444). It is defined in the JPEG 2000 Verification Model (VM). Its purpose is to store a single component (channel) of an image with potentially high bit depth and signed/unsigned values, without the complexity of a full image container.
A PGX file represents one image channel (grayscale). It starts with a minimalist text header identifying the endianness (`LMS` or `Big`), the sign (`+`/`-`), the bit depth, and dimensions. The raw pixel data follows immediately. It is effectively a raw dump of a single image plane.
Developed by the JPEG committee during the creation of JPEG 2000. It allowed researchers to test wavelet compression algorithms on raw data without worrying about file headers or color transforms.
