Short for Tagged Image File Format, TIFF is a digital image format. Most commonly used within print publications and by designers using the Apple Macintosh operating system, TIFF gives users the option of saving image files at varying levels of compression, and is compatible with nearly all graphics-editing software programs. Several applications installed by default on Windows XP are capable of opening TIFF files. After specifying which program you want to handle TIFFs, opening the files becomes a very quick task.
