Convert TIFF to TIF

What is TIFF file?

The .TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) file extension is a bitmapped graphics file format commonly used in desktop publishing. It supports lossless compression, which means images in TIFF format retain all original details and colors after compression. History The TIFF file extension was created in the mid-80s by Aldus, now a division of Adobe Systems, and Microsoft. [ ⏩ ] TIFF file extension

What is TIF file?

TIF (.TIF or TIFF) is an image file format standardized in 1988 by Aldus (Aldus Corporation) and Microsoft (Microsoft Corporation) for storing raster and vector images. It allows images to be individually compressed and they are composed of forms, lines and text. It supports different versions of bitmap, depending on how the image has been encoded and supports RGB, CMYK palettes, Indexed color, and various compression algorithms. [ ⏩ ] TIF file extension

How to convert the file from TIFF to TIF?

To successfully convert the TIFF file to TIF, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.TIFF). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case TIF (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than TIF).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. TIFF to TIF. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting TIFF files to TIF files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension TIF, while before this step we had the TIFF file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new TIF file, or not.
