TIFF (Tagged Image File Format)
A TIFF file is a raster image that can include one or more layers. The format is widely used in printing when working with high-quality graphics with a large color depth, as well as for saving multi-page images, such as faxes and scanned documents. Typically, TIFF files have the extension .tiff (or .tif). One of the advantages of the TIFF format is lossless compression, however, in our time, the .tiff extension has been supplemented with lossy compression capabilities in JPEG, ZIP, JBIG, LZ77, PackBits and so on. The .tiff file is designed for storing images with high-quality graphics, which is its main advantage. To open the TIFF file, you do not need specialized software, just use popular graphic applications, such as Adobe Photoshop, Windows Photos, CorelDRAW and others.
JPG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)
JPG is one of the most recognizable, popular, and comprehensible bitmap image formats.This format appeared as a result of the work of the group of photo experts “Joint Photographic Experts Group”. The main task of this group of developers was to develop an optimal image compression algorithm. Today, this problem has been solved successfully. It is used .jpg most often for processing and storing full-color images with realistic images, where brightness and color transitions are inherently present. Also .jpg format is used for storing and transmitting graphic digital content (photos, scan copies, digitized pictures). It is most convenient for placing and transmitting compressed images over the network, because it takes up little space compared to other formats.
