G3 to FLIF Conversion: FAQ
What are G3 files?
The .g3 file extension is most commonly associated with Group 3 Fax images, a digital format developed by the CCITT (now ITU-T) to transmit black-and-white documents efficiently over analog telephone lines. By utilizing basic run-length encoding compression, this format minimizes file sizes for text and line drawings while maintaining legibility across vintage fax machines and early digital archiving systems.
What are FLIF files?
FLIF (Free Lossless Image Format) is a royalty-free format launched at the end of 2015 as "work in progress" with the aim of offering a better alternative for storing lossless images than the existing PNG, WebP, BPG, JPEG2000 and JPEG XR. FLIF provides similar image quality as the other extensions, but in a file size than can be up to 74% smaller. The new format uses a form of the Adam7 algorithm for compressing images, offering progressive interlacing that allows users to obtain a reasonable encoding of an image even from a partial download.
