"Jpeg" and ".jpg" are the same thing. The only difference is that most people prefer to say "jpeg" rather than "dot J.P.G."

jpeg and jpg format are same. the difference is only that jpg is the extension file of jpeg. you can not convert one into other. Actually extension or format is jpeg but older computers allows you to have only 3 letters for extension or format and that's why this extension or format is shortened.
