About formats

MOBI is an ebook format originally developed by Mobipocket SA, a French company founded in 2000 that was later acquired by Amazon in 2005. The format builds on the PalmDOC/PDB container structure, adding support for HTML-based content markup, embedded images, a DRM layer, and a JavaScript subset for limited interactivity. MOBI files use a record-based database architecture inherited from Palm OS, with a header structure containing metadata like title, author, publisher, and language followed by compressed HTML content records. The format became the foundation of Amazon's early Kindle ecosystem — the original AZW format used on first-generation Kindles was essentially MOBI with Amazon's own DRM wrapper. MOBI supports reflowable text with basic formatting including bold, italic, headings, lists, and tables, as well as internal hyperlinks and a built-in table of contents. One advantage is broad device compatibility: MOBI files are recognized by Kindle devices and apps spanning over a decade of hardware, as well as numerous third-party readers on desktop and mobile platforms. The format's lightweight structure is another strength — even long novels produce compact files that load quickly on modest hardware. While Amazon has since moved to the more capable AZW3/KF8 format for new publishing, MOBI remains widely circulated in existing ebook libraries and continues to be produced by conversion tools like Calibre for maximum Kindle compatibility.
Developer: Mobipocket SA
Initial release: 2000
JPEG is one of the most widely used image formats in computing, standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group and published as ISO/IEC 10918-1 in September 1992. The .jpeg extension is functionally identical to .jpg — both contain the same JFIF or Exif-wrapped JPEG compressed image data. The format applies lossy compression using the discrete cosine transform (DCT): images are divided into 8x8 pixel blocks, transformed into frequency coefficients, quantized to discard visually less significant information, and entropy-coded for storage. The quality-to-size tradeoff is user-selectable, with typical settings producing files 10-20 times smaller than uncompressed originals at visually acceptable quality. JPEG supports 8-bit grayscale and 24-bit color, with Exif metadata carrying camera settings, GPS coordinates, timestamps, and thumbnails. One advantage is absolute universality — JPEG is readable by every image viewer, web browser, operating system, camera, phone, and printer manufactured in the past three decades, making it the safest format for sharing photographic images with any recipient. The efficient compression of continuous-tone photographic content is another core strength: JPEG consistently produces compact files from camera sensors and real-world scenes where subtle color gradients dominate. While newer formats like WebP and AVIF achieve better compression ratios, JPEG's installed base is so vast that it remains the default output of digital cameras and the most common image format on the web.
