Tips & Best Practices
-
Use ZIP archives for distributing multiple JPE images to ensure compatibility and ease of access
-
Avoid excessive recompression of JPE files prior to archiving to minimize quality loss
-
Choose ZIP for its random access capability to extract individual files without unpacking everything
-
Be aware of file size limits and ZIP64 support when working with very large archives
-
Remember that JPE images do not support transparency and can display compression artifacts
Limitations
-
JPE format uses lossy compression that may introduce visible quality loss and does not support transparency
-
ZIP archives use per-file compression which can be less efficient than solid archive formats
-
Legacy ZIP encryption is weak and stronger encryption support varies by software
-
Listing ZIP contents requires the whole archive file since central directory is at the end
-
Historical ZIP limits exist on file size and number unless ZIP64 extension is supported
