J-card

A J-card is a paper inlay/front cover for a slim-line CD jewel case. This type of inlay is most commonly printed one sided, then folded which gives it the J-shape to fit in to the slim spine of the jewel case.

JPEG, JPG

(Joint Photographic Experts Group) - JPEG files work very similar to TIFF files. JPEG’s have the added benefit of an optional file compression system which removes the least used colours from the colour palette, making the file smaller. This can create some small changes but they are not very noticeable (depending on the compression rate).
