Quality Considerations
JPG uses lossy compression.

Text and sharp edges may show artifacts.
Photos handle JPG compression well.
Choosing the Right Quality Level
90-100%: Minimal visible loss, larger files.
80-90%: Good balance for most uses.
60-80%: Noticeable compression, small files.
Below 60%: Visible artifacts, very small files.
