Developed by Aldus Corporation in 1986, TIFF files support various color spaces and compression methods, making them ideal for archival purposes, high-resolution scanning, and desktop publishing. Its versatility and robust metadata handling ensure that TIFF remains a staple in industries requiring precise image fidelity.
