TIFF, formerly known as Tag(ged) Image File Format, is an image format capable of storing multiple high quality images in a single file.
A TIFF image may be uncompressed or use a compression scheme internally. Two of the most widely used compression schemes in TIFF files are lossless, including LZW and, for bitonal images CCITT Group 4, as used for facsimile transmission [fax]. JPEG baseline DCT-based lossy compression is also used.
Several subtypes and extensions of TIFF exist, including TIFF/EP, TIFF/IT, DNG, GeoTIFF, TIFF-FX, and BigTIFF. Multi-image TIFFs may represent sequences of images (such as scanned pages of a document), image tiles, or different versions of the same image, for example Pyramid TIFFs that incorporate images at different resolutions (often tiled). Some software that can read and display a TIFF file may only open the primary image.

Compression
Tag 259 indicates the image compression scheme, as a coded integer. Some of the defined compression schemes are listed below.
| Code | Compression scheme |
|---|---|
| 1 | uncompressed |
| 2, 32771 | 1-dimensional CCITT Group 3. Essentially the same as compression code 3, but with different settings. There are no end-of-line markers, and each row is aligned on a byte boundary (or a 2-byte boundary for code 32771). |
| 3 | 1- or 2-dimensional CCITT Group 3, depending on the value of T4Options bit 0. |
| 4 | CCITT Group 4 |
| 5 | LZW |
| 6, 7 | JPEG |
| 8, 32946 | DEFLATE |
| 9, 10 | JBIG (refer to TIFF-FX) |
| 32773 | PackBits |
| 32809 | ThunderScan compression |
| 34661 | JBIG |
| 34712 | JPEG2000 |
| 34718, 34719, 34720 | MODI_BLC, MODI_VECTOR, MODI_PTC (refer to MDI) |
| 34892 | Lossy JPEG (refer to DNG) |
Color types
Tag 262 indicates the color type ("photometric interpretation") of the image, as a coded integer. Some of the defined color types are listed below.
| Code | Color type |
|---|---|
| 0 | Grayscale or bi-level, white is 0 |
| 1 | Grayscale or bi-level, black is 0 |
| 2 | RGB |
| 3 | Palette color |
| 5 | CMYK |
| 6 | YCbCr |
| 8 | CIE L*a*b* |
| 9 | ICC L*a*b* |
| 10 | ITU L*a*b* (refer to TIFF-FX) |
| 32803 | CFA (refer to DNG) |
| 32844 | CIE Log2(L) |
| 32845 | CIE Log2(L) (u',v') |
| 34892 | LinearRaw (refer to DNG) |
