| File extension | .DGN |

| Description | DGN (short for design) is the native CAD drawing format of Bentley MicroStation, inherited from the Intergraph IGDS system. A single .dgn file stores 2D and 3D vector geometry together with levels (layers), cells, text, dimensions, line styles and attachments to other design files, so one drawing can pull in a whole set of related models. Two incompatible generations are still in circulation: the older V7 (ISFF) files written by MicroStation up to version J, and V8 files introduced in 2001, which use a compound-document container and add named levels, unlimited undo and design history. Outside MicroStation few applications open either generation, so DGN drawings are normally converted to PDF for review and sharing, or to DXF for editing in AutoCAD. |

| Description | JPG is the file format for images made by digital cameras and spread throughout the world wide web. Saving in JPG format an image loses its quality, because of the size compression. But at the end you have a much smaller file easy to archive, send, and publish in the web. These are the cases when an image's size matters more than image's quality. Nonetheless, by using professional software you can select the compression degree and so affect the image's quality. |

DGN is a CAD drawing format, while JPG is a compressed image format made for photographs. Converting turns the drawing into a picture for documents, slides or the web.
Converting DGN to JPG keeps the drawing as a picture. It drops vector editability and crisp scaling (it is rasterised). The resulting JPG file is about the same, depending on the target.
