TIFF
Also known as TIF. Category: 360, 3D and output formats
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a flexible raster format, often uncompressed or losslessly compressed, used in print production and archiving. Files are large and not suitable for display on the web.
How PhotoRobot uses it
PhotoRobot Controls can export TIFF, but its item export manual describes the format as rarely needed, kept for compatibility with legacy systems, and not recommended.
