The .pcd extension is used by different applications of which the Kodak Photo CD Image format file is the primary format used by Kodak scanners. Other associations of this extension include Pure Component Data of ChemSep, Pokemon Wonder Card of Pokemon Nintendo DS and Point Cloud Data of PCL.
The .jpg filename extension refers to digital photography files or digital images that are associated with the JPEG file format specification. The joint photographic experts group, or JPEG for short, is a file format from the 'lossy image' class of image formats. Many devices including smartphones with inbuilt cameras and professional digital SLR cameras support the JPEG/Exif file format natively. Such support allow images captured on these devices to be stored directly into the jpg format without conversion. Efforts towards standardization of the JPEG format first begun in 1992 with ISO/IEC 10918-1:1994

The Kodak Photo CD Image format uses the .pcd extension to store photos with a high resolution on CDs by Kodak scanners. A PCD format can store as many as five various resolutions of the same image in one single file.
Being a 'lossy image' file format, digital image files saved as .jpg files use encoding algorithms that make inexact approximations of the photographic data to save on storage space during compression. This allows for relatively small files that are suited for delivery over networks or in low bandwidth scenarios. The jpg file format is flexible in that it accommodates a tradeoff between the size of the file and the image quality during compression. Image compression may leave noticeable artifacts in the produced image. The maximum resolution supported by the JPEG format is 4 Giga pixels.
