PNG is a raster graphics format that supports lossless compression, preserving detail and contrast between colors.

In particular, PNG offers better text readability than JPEG.

This makes PNG a more popular choice for infographics, banners , screenshots, and other graphics that include both images and text.

Advantages and disadvantages
Higher quality images ( lossless ) and clearly visible text.
Larger file sizes can slow down your website if used excessively (especially high-resolution images).
Support for browsers and operating systems
Supported by all major browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari).
Supported by all major operating systems and their standard image editors.
Use cases
Good choice for infographics, banners, blog graphics, screenshots, coupons and other visual elements that include text.
Do not use it for high resolution photos as it will create large files of up to several megabytes.

Example of a gif image
GIF is another type of image file that falls under the raster china phone number data format. It uses lossless compression but “restricts” the image to 8 bits per pixel and a limited palette of 256 colors.

The GIF format is the most famous (and most widely used) for animated images because its 8-bit limitation keeps animation file sizes small and easy to use on the Internet.

Advantages and disadvantages
The file size is small.
Animation support.
The 8-bit limitation leads to limited image quality.
Support for browsers and operating systems
Supported by all major browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari).
Supported by all major operating systems and their standard image editors.
Use cases
Use animated GIFs not only to “spice up the content” but also to demonstrate how to complete tasks in tutorials and guides.
Do not use if you need color images higher than 8 bits (JPEG supports up to 24 bits).
