Improve the quality of your images with Jpeg Enhancer
As everyone knows, JPEG (.jpg) image compression doesn’t save all the information in an image. It compresses images so that they consume only a small amount of disk space (e.g. compared with .bmp), but also damages them with “blotchy look” and “JPEG artifacts”. Still, most graphics editors have JPEG as a default format, and almost all digital photo cameras save images in JPEG format.
After GATE 2008… Guidelines for Applying Research Program.
