TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a raster image format. It is usually very large in size and produces high-quality photographs and prints. TIFF is also widely used for storing documents – by design it is a fax service and a scanner service format known for its multipage layout. TIFF seems to be universal except for its main drawback – it is so large in size that it is never suitable for the web. Being a versatile format PDF (Portable Document Format) may contain very different types of information – both raster and vector and is really good at saving text. Due to its ability to keep the file from being altered PDF is considered ideal for storing documents while TIFF is used for image files.
