What is the difference between .heifs and .fax?

Name: HEIF Image Sequence; Group 3 FAX
Extension: .heifs; .fax
Format: Binary; Binary
Category: Raster Image; Fax
Developer: Apple; ITU-T
Description: Based on HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding), the HEIF format is an image file container with one or multiple images and is the default image format for Apple Live Photos. It replaced the JPEG format as it's smaller in size and has lossless compression ensuring high-quality photos.; This format is used to compress TIFF images when sending them via fax machines. This format helps reduce the data transmission time. Group 3 eliminates redundant data during compression in order to reduce file size. The standard 10:1 compression ratio may be increased to the user's preferences, but it can lead to a significant loss of image quality.
MIME Type: image/heif-sequence; application/vnd.fax
Sample: sample.heifs
