| Overview |
| Doc extension is used for word processing documents which are prepared using Microsoft Word or any other processing program, for instance - OpenOffice Writer, IBM Lotus Symphony, AbiWord and Apple Pages. The file may include all sort of text, images, tables, graphs and charts; etc. A user can also edit the text using page formatting where one can insert hyperlinks, change the margin, choose the alignment, can use varied font size including style and also there are different options for print settings. In the recent versions, one can add audio, images, sounds and videos in the document file. This can be used to write various types of letters, resumes, essays and invitations; etc. These files are editable. |
| Technical description |
| Earlier the doc files just contained the formatted text but with the development, now these files may include numerous objects like charts, graphs, tables and all other media components. It can also have a mail merge information. This aforesaid feature is used for mass mailing in which a number of letters with the fixed or same text are sent to multiple or distinct people with a different mailing address. Few word processing templates can be used to put content from database, spreadsheet or table into the text documents. In the 1980s, this extension was used by WordPerfect for their proprietary format but later in 1983, Microsoft chose to use this extension for their Microsoft Word which is their product. The specifications are not publically available for this file, yet, some of them are available in ‘Microsoft Open Specification Promise' which was released on 15th February 2008. |

| Overview |
| Files stored in this format are small in size that is why they can be uploaded and downloaded with ease. It takes less time over the internet to upload and download due to smaller size which results in saving of bandwidth. This extension is compressed using a lossy algorithm that is why there can be a reduction in the quality of the photograph. It has the ability to compress the file to one-tenth of its original size. It is widely used in emails and also when images are to be posted on websites. Digital Cameras and other photographic image capture devices widely use this JPG format. The paintings and photos of realistic scenes that have smooth variations of colour can be best illustrated by this format. |
| Technical description |
| A technique used in JPEG format to compress files is lossy compression which is based on DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) as it is the most practical Mathematical operation. The DCT actually converts each frame of the video from the spatial domain to a frequency/transform domain. It discards the information of high frequency that has sharp transitions in intensity as well as in colour hue. Furthermore, this standard defines a codec which tells how an image can be encoded into a stream of bytes and decoded back into an image. The files can be compressed in the ratio of 100:1 but that would result in the poor quality of an image. Therefore, to retain the quality of a photo, a file should be compressed till 20:1 ratio not more than that. |
