The Black Ice
Printer Drivers can convert any printable file into a variety of
formats, including TIFF.
Printer Driver Overview
TIFF (Tagged
Image File Format) is one of the most popular and flexible of
the current public domain raster file formats. The TIFF file
format does not favor any operating system, compiler or
processor. TIFF is designed for raster data interchange. TIFF's
main strengths are a highly flexible and platform-independent
format that is supported by numerous image-processing
applications. Since developers of printers, scanners and
monitors designed it, the TIFF format has a rich space of
information elements for colorimetry calibration, gamut tables,
etc. Such information is also very useful for remote sensing and
multi-spectral applications.
Another
powerful feature of TIFF is the ability to break an image into
tiles rather than scan lines. This allows for efficient access
to very large images which have been compressed.
TIFF files do not have one method of storing image data, the
following TIFF compression types are currently supported:
TIFF supports
the following bits per pixel: 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 24.
The TIFF file format supports either monochrome or color (using
JPEG compression).
TIFF support is
included in the following Black Ice printer drivers:
