These 15 guidelines — along with the accompanying Best Practices documents — aim to clarify issues affecting accurate reproduction and management of digital image files. Although they largely reflect a photographer’s perspective, anyone working with digital images should find them useful. The guidelines have three primary goals:

* Digital images look the same as they transfer between devices, platforms and vendors.
* Digital images are prepared in the correct resolution, at the correct size, for the device(s) on which they will be viewed or printed.
* Digital images have metadata embedded that conforms to the IPTC standards, making the images searchable, providing usage and contact information, and stating their creators or copyright owners.
