FAQ
JB2 to XBM Conversion
What are JB2 files?
JBIG2 (.jb2) is a compression format designed specifically for black-and-white, scanned pages. It builds a dictionary of repeated glyphs—letters, digits, logos—so each unique symbol is stored once and merely referenced thereafter, yielding files 5–20 × smaller than fax-style TIFF G4. The format supports both lossless and lossy modes; the latter can introduce character-substitution errors if tuned too aggressively. Widely used inside PDFs and office scanners, JBIG2 offers unmatched compactness for text documents but demands careful settings and secure decoders.
What are XBM files?
The XBM (X BitMap) format represents a monochrome image file usually used for storing cursor and icon bitmaps in the X graphical user interface. XBMs store data as C language data array, so they can be included directly into an application. They are, however, fairly large in size. In the late 1980s the XBM format was superseded by the XPM format for the X Windows System.
