What are TIFF Images?
Tagged Image File Format (abbreviated TIFF) was originally created by the company Aldus but is now under control of Adobe systems since 2009. This file format is popular among Apple Macintosh owners, graphic artists, the publishing industry and both amateur and professional photographers in general. TIFF format is widely supported by image-manipulation applications, by publishing and page layout applications, by scanning, faxing, word processing, optical character recognition and other applications. Adobe systems, which acquired Aldus, now holds the copyright to the TIFF specification.
