  public static PixbufFormat JPEG

  The Joint Photographic Group image format. Often used for digital photographs, JPEG uses frequency compression to store enough of the image as to be able to capture its essence, but does so using a transform that is lossy. The common filename extension is .jpg.

• PNG

  public static PixbufFormat PNG

  The Portable Network Graphic image format. The filename extension for PNGs is .png and should be used when saving images of this type.

• TIFF

  public static PixbufFormat TIFF

  The Tagged Image File Format, used as a container format for storing images including photographs and line art. It is a lossless format, but is incredibly space-inefficient. Images saved in this format should be given the filename extension .tiff.
