Detailed explanation-1: -TIFFs are typically uncompressed files or use lossless compression. This results in very high quality images and, subsequently, very large file sizes. Note: a JPEG that is converted into a TIFF will not have a lossless image quality.

Detailed explanation-2: -A TIFF, or tagged image file format, is a lossless raster format hailed for its extremely high image quality. Often the format used by professionals in creative industries, these files require a large amount of storage space and are a challenge to share unless zipped or sent using file-sharing tools.

Detailed explanation-3: -TIFF is uncompressed. Since TIFF does not use any compression algorithms like JPEG or GIF formats, the file contains more data and results in a more detailed picture. However, because TIFF files contain more data, the files are large and take up a lot of storage space.

Detailed explanation-4: -What is the maximum size of a TIFF file? The format uses 32bit offsets, and as such, it is limited to 4 gigabytes. Many implementations handle these offsets using signed integers, and thus support files of up to 2 gigabytes, but the only real limit resulting from the format specification is 4 gigabytes.
