standard formats

Standard formats are predefined arrangements for storing and sharing data or files, ensuring consistency and compatibility across different systems or software. They specify how information is organized, enabling documents, images, videos, or other data types to be opened, used, and understood universally. Examples include PDF for documents, JPEG for images, and MP4 for videos. Using standard formats helps prevent compatibility issues, makes collaboration easier, and preserves data integrity over time, ensuring that files look and function the same regardless of the device or software used.
