JPEG and JPG are the same format
A .jpeg file and a .jpg file are the same image format. The three-letter .jpg comes from MS-DOS and early Windows, which only allowed three-letter extensions. Some upload portals and document systems still check for one spelling, and this page gives you files that end in .jpeg. If the extension doesn't matter, DBF to JPG produces the same images.
How to convert DBF to JPEG
- Upload your .dbf file with the box above.
- Select JPEG as the output.
- Convert and download the .jpeg images.
The file is processed on our servers. Our DBF reader rebuilds the table with real dates, numbers and TRUE/FALSE values, then each page of the laid-out table is saved as a JPEG with the header row repeated.
Text from old systems, decoded first
DBF files from dBASE and FoxPro systems store text in the code page of the computer that wrote them. We read the code page from the file header, check for UTF-8, and detect it from the text when the header says nothing, so the names in the image match the ones in the original system. Korean text renders correctly too.
Limits and better formats for big tables
JPEG compression can soften small digits, so for a dense table DBF to PNG is sharper. Tables with too many rows for images get a message, and DBF to PDF handles a full printable copy. dBASE 7 files aren't supported yet. All DBF conversions are on the DBF converter page, and the JPEG converter covers JPEG files.
