With all of the easy-to-use design and editing tools available nowadays, it\u2019s normal to think that the app knows best.\u00a0And, perhaps for most projects, the app or software does choose the optimal file type automatically. But, sometimes, you need to print or send your file with a certain extension or prepare a document for use in another application that won\u2019t recognize a certain <a href=\"https:\/\/picsart.com\/blog\/post\/unwrapping-mystery-of-image-file-types\">file type<\/a>. This is where you\u2019ll need some deeper knowledge on how to save and transfer file types. In this article, we\u2019ll do a deep dive on the different types of image and photo files and explain what all of these formats mean. That way, you\u2019ll be informed when you go to save your next project, preparing it for optimal use in the medium for which it\u2019s intended.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"What_are_the_Different_Types_of_Image_File_Formats\">What are the Different Types of Image File Formats?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s time to get technical and learn some fresh vocab that&#8217;ll impress your friends (especially the artsy ones). There are two main categories when it comes to types of image formats: raster and vector.<\/p>\n<h3>Raster<\/h3>\n<p>Raster images are made up of pixels that come together to form a whole. As you can imagine, the more pixels that fill the space, the better the image looks. You can visually determine the quality of an image by zooming in on it. If the image quickly looks pixelated as you zoom in closer, it may not be a high quality image.<\/p>\n<p>Raster images come in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/blog\/raster-vs-vector-file-formats?kw=&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiAmKiQBhClARIsAKtSj-lFIQfJE_uPhx4aWYrDvmEackOV193eF27Km0FiM7StZy38wwCAYTQaAsmHEALw_wcB&amp;c3apidt=71700000068165135&amp;PPC_GOO_MX_IG-555101558791=&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds&amp;proxy_env=sstk\">following file formats<\/a>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">TIFF (Tagged Image File Format)<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-117304\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2022\/03\/blog_image_file_types_tiff_770x515.png\" alt=\"tiff files\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" \/><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">PDF (Portable Document Format)<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-117326\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2022\/03\/blog_image_file_types_pdf_770x515.png\" alt=\"pdf file\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" \/><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">PSD (Adobe Photoshop Document)<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-117347\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2022\/03\/blog_image_file_types_psd_770x515.png\" alt=\"psd file\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" \/><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">PNG (Portable Network Graphic)<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-117368\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2022\/03\/blog_image_file_types_png_770x515.png\" alt=\"png file\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" \/><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">JPG or JPEG (Joint Photographics Expert Group)<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-117389\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2022\/03\/blog_image_file_types_jpg_770x515.png\" alt=\"jpg file\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" \/><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-117410\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2022\/03\/blog_image_file_types_gif_770x515.png\" alt=\"gif file\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" \/><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">BITMAP (Bitmap Image File)<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-117431\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2022\/03\/blog_image_file_types_bitmap_770x515.png\" alt=\"bitmap file\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Vector<\/h3>\n<p>Time for some math.
