Task 331: .JPEG File Format
Task 331: .JPEG File Format
1. File Format Specifications for .JPEG
The .JPEG (or .JPG) file format is defined by the ISO/IEC 10918-1 standard (also known as ITU-T T.81), which specifies the processes for compressing and decompressing continuous-tone still images using Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT)-based methods. It supports baseline sequential, extended sequential, progressive, and lossless modes, with Huffman or arithmetic entropy coding. The format is a stream of markers (two-byte codes starting with 0xFF) and segments containing parameters and compressed data. The JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF) is a minimal wrapper (Annex B of the standard) for interchange, adding an APP0 marker for metadata like density and thumbnails. Common extensions include EXIF for camera metadata in APP1 segments. The file starts with SOI (0xFFD8) and ends with EOI (0xFFD9).
2. List of Properties Intrinsic to the .JPEG File Format
Based on the core specification and JFIF extension, here is a comprehensive list of properties that are part of the file's internal structure (markers, segments, and fields). These are extracted from the binary stream and include header, frame, scan, table, and application-specific data. Properties are grouped by segment type for clarity:
- File Signature: The starting bytes (always 0xFFD8 for SOI).
- Image Height: Vertical dimension in pixels (2 bytes from SOF segment).
- Image Width: Horizontal dimension in pixels (2 bytes from SOF segment).
- Sample Precision: Bits per sample (1 byte from SOF, typically 8 for baseline).
- Number of Components: Number of color channels (1 byte from SOF, e.g., 1 for grayscale, 3 for YCbCr).
- Component Details: For each component - ID (1 byte), Horizontal Sampling Factor (4 bits), Vertical Sampling Factor (4 bits), Quantization Table ID (1 byte).
- Quantization Tables: Table ID and precision (1 byte, high 4 bits for precision 0/1, low 4 bits ID), followed by 64 values (1 or 2 bytes each depending on precision).
- Huffman Tables: Class (DC/AC, 4 bits), ID (4 bits), Number of codes per length (16 bytes), followed by variable code values.
- Arithmetic Conditioning Tables (if arithmetic coding): Table class and destination (1 byte), followed by conditioning values.
- Restart Interval: Number of MCUs between restarts (2 bytes from DRI segment).
- Comments: Arbitrary string data (variable length from COM segment).
- JFIF-Specific Properties (from APP0 "JFIF"):
- Version: Major and minor (2 bytes, e.g., 0x0102).
- Density Units: (1 byte, 0=no units/aspect ratio, 1=dots/inch, 2=dots/cm).
- X Density: Horizontal resolution (2 bytes).
- Y Density: Vertical resolution (2 bytes).
- Thumbnail Width: Horizontal thumbnail pixels (1 byte).
- Thumbnail Height: Vertical thumbnail pixels (1 byte).
- Thumbnail Data: RGB pixels or compressed data (variable, if present).
- EXIF-Specific Properties (if APP1 "Exif" present, parsed from TIFF-like structure):
- Orientation: Image rotation/flip (short, 1-8).
- X Resolution: Horizontal DPI (rational).
- Y Resolution: Vertical DPI (rational).
- Resolution Unit: (short, 1=none, 2=inch, 3=cm).
- Make: Camera manufacturer (ASCII string).
- Model: Camera model (ASCII string).
- Software: Processing software (ASCII string).
- DateTime: Capture time (ASCII, YYYY:MM:DD HH:MM:SS).
- Other tags: Exposure time, F-number, ISO speed, GPS coordinates, etc. (various types).
- Other Application Data: Arbitrary data from other APPn segments (e.g., ICC profiles in APP2).
- Scan Details: From SOS - Number of components in scan (1 byte), component selectors and tables (variable), spectral selection (3 bytes), bit position (1 byte).
These properties are intrinsic to the format's binary structure and do not include external file system attributes like size or timestamps.

4. Ghost Blog Embedded HTML JavaScript for Drag and Drop .JPEG Property Dump
Here's an HTML snippet with embedded JavaScript that can be embedded in a Ghost blog post (using the HTML card). It creates a drag-and-drop area where a user can drop a .JPEG file. The script reads the file as an ArrayBuffer, parses the JPEG structure, extracts the properties from the list above, and dumps them to the screen in a pre-formatted text area.
Drag and drop a .JPEG file here
Note: This is a basic parser; full EXIF and thumbnail data parsing is simplified. It dumps properties as JSON to the screen.
