About the formats
CorelDRAW drawing
CDR is CorelDRAW's proprietary vector format for logos, layouts and illustrations. It is rarely readable outside Corel's own software, so it is almost always converted to an image or SVG before sharing or publishing on the web.
Strengths
- Rich vector editing in CorelDRAW
- Popular in print and signage workshops
- Compact for complex layouts
Limitations
- Proprietary — poor support elsewhere
- Not viewable in browsers
- Newer versions can convert imperfectly
Best for: Sharing CorelDRAW work — converted to PNG, SVG or PDF so anyone can open it.
JPEG image
JPG (JPEG) is the most widely used photo format on the web. Its lossy compression shrinks photographs to small files that open everywhere, from browsers to cameras and phones.
Strengths
- Very small files for photos
- Opens on virtually every device and app
- Adjustable quality vs. size trade-off
Limitations
- Lossy — quality drops on each re-save
- No transparency support
- Visible artefacts on text, lines and flat colour
Best for: Photographs and complex images for the web, email and social media where small file size matters most.
