Editing JPEG image files involves manipulating and modifying digital images in the JPEG format. JPEG, short for Joint Photographic Experts Group, is a commonly used image file format for storing and transmitting digital images. It uses a lossy compression algorithm, which reduces the file size by discarding some of the image data. This makes JPEG images suitable for sharing and displaying on the web, but it can also result in a loss of image quality, especially when the image is edited and saved multiple times.
There are various ways to edit JPEG image files. Basic editing tasks, such as cropping, resizing, and rotating, can be performed using simple image editing software or online tools. More advanced editing, such as color correction, retouching, and adding effects, requires more sophisticated software like Adobe Photoshop or GIMP.
