Image file corruption with MS WordpadOpen Wordpad – File > Open > Files of Type,
select “all documents (*.*)”
Select your file.
Wordpad treats the image file as a text file, it will diligently try to reformat your file to fit the screen, changing straight quotes into “smart” or curly quotes, adding line breaks, and stuff like that. This formatting is what actually causes the glitches in your image. After the file has fully loaded, go to the file menu and click “save”.
Generally JPG files are too fragile to withstand this process. TIF and BMP files are more robust. The preferred format is RAW. The RAW file let you choose the number of colour channels. It also allows you to create files with no headers (which are unbreakable). 'Interleaving' affects the way the code is displayed for each channel.
Evidence of horizontal & vertical disruption
Wild colour shifts and shearing
Pleasing results, worthy of further exploration
