Tag Image File Format[1] or Tagged Image File Format,[2] commonly known by the abbreviations TIFF or TIF, is an image file format for storing raster graphics images, popular among graphic artists, the publishing industry,[3] and photographers. TIFF is widely supported by scanning, faxing, word processing, optical character recognition, image manipulation, desktop publishing, and page-layout applications.[4] The format was created by the Aldus Corporation for use in desktop publishing. It published the latest version 6.0 in 1992, subsequently updated with an Adobe Systems copyright after the latter acquired Aldus in 1994. Several Aldus or Adobe technical notes have been published with minor extensions to the format, and several specifications have been based on TIFF 6.0, including TIFF/EP (ISO 12234-2), TIFF/IT (ISO 12639),[5][6][7] TIFF-F (RFC 2306) and TIFF-FX (RFC 3949).[8]
A TIFF, which stands for Tag Image File Format, is a computer file used to store raster graphics and image information.
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) files are common in publishing, photo editing, and graphic design.
This file format specification is commonly known as TIFF for Fax eXtended (TIFF-FX).
