Which is a lossless file format?
A
.DOC
B
.JPG
C
.TIFF
D
.INDD
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Both PNG and TIFF files benefit from lossless compression, meaning that no matter how often you save, open or resize them, they’ll maintain their quality. However, TIFF files offer users a choice between lossy and lossless compression, which can help to reduce the file size if this is a priority.

Detailed explanation-2: -The ability to store image data in a lossless format makes a TIFF file a useful image archive, because, unlike standard JPEG files, a TIFF file using lossless compression (or none) may be edited and re-saved without losing image quality.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -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.
