VTK format is described here :
http://www.kitware.com/FileFormats.pdf

Supported formats are easy to find :
http://visualizationtoolkit.org/vtk/quality/Doc/html/classes.html
check for the class with "Writer", "Reader", "Export", "Import" or "Source" 
in their name.
or browse the inheritance tree of vtkImageReader, vtkPolyDataSource, 
vtkPolyDataWriter.

and additional VTK classes might be found here (provided that their authors 
send me an emal :) :

There seems to be a JPEG reader here :
