What is a .tiff file?
image/tiff
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a flexible container that stores one or more raster images with a rich tag-based header describing layout, compression, and color. It supports uncompressed, LZW, and other codecs, high bit depths, multiple pages, and CMYK, making it common in publishing, scanning, and archival workflows. Its flexibility means reader support varies.
How to use a .tiff file
Use an example TIFF to test multi-page and high-bit-depth handling, tag parsing, and document-imaging or archival pipelines that must read varied compression and color models.

- Format Set — Fruit Still Life (TIFF)A 1024×1024 fruit still life exported as TIFF — one member of a conversion set that carries identical content across formats, so you can convert one and diff against the others.
- Linear 16-bit Greyscale TIFFA linear 16-bit greyscale TIFF ramp (0–65535). Not a PQ HDR master — for testing high bit-depth TIFF loaders and 16→8 truncation.
- Linear 16-bit Highlight Clip TIFFA 16-bit TIFF biased into the upper code values (near clip) — for highlight-rolloff and tone-map tests on linear data.
- Multipage Scene TIFF (3 pages)Three-page TIFF of synthetic scenes — fixture for multipage TIFF loaders and page extractors.
- Single-Page Scene TIFFSingle-page TIFF of the same scene as page 1 of the multipage twin.
- Two-Page Scene TIFFTwo-page TIFF companion for multipage loader edge cases.
- Linear 16-bit Grey TIFF (deflate)64×64 linear 16-bit greyscale TIFF with deflate — Wave H depth for high bit-depth loaders.
- Linear 16-bit Grey TIFF (LZW)LZW twin of the Wave H linear 16-bit greyscale TIFF.
