Here, is a list of 5 TIFF Viewer applications, available for free.
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is one of the most popular, and widely used image file formats. It’s amongst one of the three popular formats (JPEG, TIFF, PNG) used to represent colored images. It uses lossless compression method to store bit-mapped images such as line art graphics and digital photographs.
Images stored in TIFF format are generally recognized with .tiff or .tif extension. A TIFF file can be opened and viewed using a TIFF file Viewer. A TIFF file Viewer, or simply TIFF Viewer, allows you to open and view TIFF files in an easily readable format. TIFF files can be of single page, multi-page, or even oversized files.
Here, we are going to discuss about 5 such free TIFF Viewers. Lets have a look on each of them, one by one.
