- Description
- The FTF file type, standing for Faxable TIFF, is a specific format of the Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) tailored for fax transmission. It is designed to optimize images for fax machines, ensuring that documents are clear and legible when sent or received. FTF files compress the image data to reduce file size without significantly sacrificing quality, making it efficient for the bandwidth limitations of fax transmissions. This format is particularly useful in industries that rely heavily on faxing for document exchange.
- A BMP file is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels. It contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
