millions of colors (24-bit). The JPEG format is best for scanned
photographs, images using textures, images with gradient color transitions,
and any images that require more than 256 colors.
- PNG

Network Graphic (PNG) is a versatile web graphic format that can support
up to 32-bit color, can contain transparency or an alpha channel,
and can be progressive. However, not all web browsers can view PNG
images. Although PNG is the native file format for Fireworks, Fireworks
PNG files contain additional application-specific information that
is not stored in an exported PNG file or in files created in other
applications.
- WBMP
- Wireless Bitmap (WBMP) is a graphic format created
for mobile computing devices such as cell phones and PDAs. This

WBMP is a 1-bit format, only two colors are visible: black and white.

TIFF files are most commonly used in print publishing. Many multimedia applications
also accept imported TIFF files.
- BMP

Microsoft Windows graphic file format. Many applications can import BMP
images.

by Apple Computer and most commonly used on Macintosh operating
systems. Most Mac applications are capable of importing PICT images.
