How do I know what the right file type is for an image?

I want to upload some images and photos, but I am not sure what file type to choose.


Answer

Thank you for your question about file extensions for images.

The most common that you will see are JPEG, GIF, and PDF. However, there are others to choose from and each has reasons it is best for certain types of content. Attached is a pdf of the different types of image files you can choose from and what each is best for.

If you need additional assistance, please contact your HFC Librarian.
