Description TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a flexible, high-quality raster image format often used in professional photography, publishing, medical imaging, and archival storage. It supports multiple color spaces, high bit depths, layers, multiple pages, and various compression methods (including none, LZW, PackBits, and JPEG). TIFF is valued for its ability to store images without quality loss, making it a preferred choice when preserving original detail is critical. WebP is a modern image format developed by Google that provides superior compression compared to traditional formats like JPEG and PNG. It supports both lossy and lossless compression, alpha transparency, and animation in a single format. This versatility makes it particularly valuable for the web, where reducing file sizes without sacrificing visual quality directly improves page load speeds and user experience.
Typical usage
  • Archiving original image scans for preservation
  • High-quality photo editing in professional workflows
  • Storing images in scientific, medical, and geospatial applications
  • Exchanging print-ready files between publishers and designers
  • Web graphics and photos where smaller file sizes improve page performance
  • Images that require transparency with minimal size impact
  • Replacing both JPEG and PNG assets with a single format for efficiency
  • Animated images as a more efficient alternative to GIF
Typical use cases
  • Saving uncompressed or losslessly compressed photographs for later editing without degradation.
  • Capturing and storing detailed scans of artworks, maps, and documents for long-term archival.
  • Medical imaging formats such as radiology scans (X-ray, MRI, CT) where accuracy is vital.
  • Creating multi-page scanned documents in a single file.
  • Optimizing e-commerce product images to load quickly without quality loss
  • Serving responsive images for high-DPI (Retina) displays while keeping bandwidth low
  • Replacing animated GIFs with smaller, smoother WebP animations
  • Reducing storage and CDN bandwidth costs for large image libraries
Widely supported by
  • Adobe Photoshop
  • GIMP
  • Affinity Photo

  • Microsoft Windows Photo Viewer
  • Apple Preview
  • Most professional printing and scanning software
  • All major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari 14+)

Animation support No — TIFF is designed for still images; it can store multiple images/pages, but not as animated frames. Yes — WebP supports multi-frame animation with both lossy and lossless compression, enabling high-quality animated images at significantly smaller file sizes than GIF.

Compression method Supports multiple: None, LZW, PackBits, JPEG, ZIP, CCITT Group 4 (fax), etc. Lossy (predictive coding, similar to VP8) and Lossless (local palette, entropy coding)
Interlacing Not applicable (stores images in full resolution) Not supported; entire image is decoded progressively in chunks
Advantages
  • Can store images at very high bit depths and resolutions without loss.
  • Supports multiple compression methods, including lossless and uncompressed modes.
  • Can store multiple images/pages in one file, useful for scanned documents.
  • Highly flexible metadata tagging, allowing detailed technical and descriptive information.
  • Significantly smaller file sizes than JPEG or PNG at equivalent visual quality.
  • Supports both lossy and lossless compression modes in one format.
  • Full alpha channel support for transparency in both compression modes.
  • Animation support makes it a superior alternative to GIF for quality and file size.
  • Broad browser and tool support has grown, making it viable for production web use.
Disadvantages
  • File sizes can be extremely large, especially for uncompressed images.
  • Not optimized for web use; slow to load in browsers.
  • Some compression methods (like JPEG-in-TIFF) may reduce compatibility with certain software.
  • Older browsers and some legacy devices lack native WebP support, requiring fallback formats.
  • Encoding complexity can be higher, making compression slower for very large images.
  • Not ideal for archival purposes since some software ecosystems still favor traditional formats.
Max size note The classic TIFF specification limits files to 4 GB, though BigTIFF (using 64-bit offsets) removes this restriction. While WebP reduces average image sizes significantly, excessively large images can still lead to high memory usage during decoding, especially with animations.
