What is the difference between .cal and .tiff?

Description: The CALS raster file format, commonly known by the extension ".cal" or ".cals," is a bitmap file format designed primarily for the storage and interchange of digital images, especially in the field of computer-aided design (CAD) and engineering. Developed by the United States Department of Defense, it was intended to standardize the exchange of graphics data for electronic publishing of technical manuals. This format supports monochrome (1-bit) images and is distinguished by its efficient compression methods for reducing file sizes, facilitating easier storage and transmission. Despite its specific initial use case, the CALS raster format has found application in various industries for the archiving and sharing of high-resolution, scanned documents.; A TIFF file is a graphics container that stores raster images. It may contain high-quality graphics that support color depths from 1 to 24-bit and supports both lossy and lossless compression. TIFF files also support multiple layers and pages.
