About formats

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a flexible raster image format originally developed by Aldus Corporation (later acquired by Adobe) in October 1986 for desktop publishing and scanning applications. The format uses a tagged data structure where the image file header points to one or more Image File Directories (IFDs), each containing a set of tags that describe the image's dimensions, color space, compression, resolution, and other properties. This extensible architecture means TIFF can accommodate virtually any image type: 1-bit bilevel, grayscale, indexed color, RGB, CMYK, CIE L*a*b*, and beyond, at any bit depth from 1 to 64 bits per sample. TIFF supports multiple compression methods including none (uncompressed), LZW, DEFLATE, JPEG, and CCITT Group 3/4 fax compression, as well as multi-page documents, tiled storage for efficient random access to large images, and floating-point pixel values for HDR content. One advantage is professional-grade flexibility — TIFF handles the full range of image types encountered in publishing, prepress, medical imaging, geospatial analysis, and scientific research, where specialized color spaces and high bit depths are required. Lossless archival quality is another core strength: TIFF with no compression or LZW/DEFLATE preserves every pixel value exactly, making it the standard archival format for libraries, museums, and any institution that requires guaranteed long-term image fidelity. TIFF is supported by every major image editing, scanning, and publishing application across all platforms.

WebP is an image format developed by Google, announced on September 30, 2010, designed to provide superior compression for web images in both lossy and lossless modes. The lossy mode is derived from the VP8 video codec's intra-frame coding (the same technology used in WebM video), applying block prediction, transform coding, and adaptive quantization to photographic content. The lossless mode uses a distinct algorithm combining predictive coding, color space transforms, backward reference to repeated pixel patterns, and entropy coding. WebP also supports alpha transparency in both modes — lossy WebP with transparency is unique among common web formats, offering semi-transparent images at much smaller sizes than PNG. The format supports animated sequences as well, providing a modern alternative to GIF with full-color support and dramatically better compression. One advantage is substantial file size reduction — lossy WebP produces images 25-35% smaller than JPEG at equivalent visual quality, and lossless WebP is typically 26% smaller than PNG, directly improving web page loading speed and reducing bandwidth costs. Universal browser support provides another key strength: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and all mobile browsers now render WebP natively, achieving the broad adoption threshold needed for practical deployment. Google's core web infrastructure (Search, YouTube thumbnails, Gmail) uses WebP extensively, and the format is supported by major CDN platforms, CMS systems, and image processing services. WebP has established itself as the primary modern alternative to JPEG and PNG for web content.
