jpeg is OK, but be aware that each time you modify and save the file it gets recompressed, so the quality can degrade pretty quickly even at moderate compression settings.<br />
<br />
To avoid this, do all the image manipulation (cropping, contrast etc) in an uncompressed format like bmp, and then batch convert to compressed jpeg. &nbsp;Batch conversion is an option in most graphics software, and it's as easy as copying files in Explorer.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
We have 1,000's and 1000's of documents we want to convert to document images.<br />
I need to write an app to do all the retrieval of course but I need to deceide on an image format that will...<br />
1) Be as SMALL as possible (remember 1000's and 1000's)<br />
2) Be able to be retrieved quickly.<br />
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?<br />
PS. almost everything exists now on paper. Not much electronic so scanned images is what I will have to work with.

Websites use graphics to enhance information, assist navigation, and generally improve the user’s experience. To create those graphics, developers use any number of programs, like the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop and Flash have their own topics), the CorelDraw suite, Xara, Gimp, ACDSee, Serif, ULead and others.
