That should be how world files work but in v.0.8 the world file had to have the extension .tfw regardless of the file type you were trying to georef. Had me puzzled for quite a while.
I think this was probably a bug - don't know if it has been fixed in 0.81, to my shame I haven't tried it yet!

How to georeference in QGIS 0.8 > plz advice nishith If you have a raster map called MyRaster.tif then the associated World File would be MyRaster.tfw. For JPEG rasters you would have something like MyRaster.jpg and the World File MyRaster.jgw. The raster and World File should reside in the same directory. I *assume* that if the raster contains georeferencing information this will be ignored and the World File will be used by Qgis instead. Please will someone advise if I am correct here.
