Convert JPG to PPTX

Understanding JPG and PPTX file formats

JPG (or JPEG) is a widely used raster image format known for its efficient compression and compatibility across devices and platforms. It is commonly used for photographs and web images due to its balance of quality and file size.

PPTX is the default file format for Microsoft PowerPoint presentations. It allows users to create slideshows with text, images, charts, animations, and multimedia content. PPTX files are based on the Office Open XML standard, making them compatible with many presentation software tools.
