- Description
- The XIF file format, standing for Xerox Image Format, is primarily associated with scanned documents produced by Xerox scanning devices and software. It is a proprietary format developed to include both the image of a scanned document and its text content, leveraging OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to make the document searchable and editable. XIF files were designed to support advanced document imaging features, such as annotations and metadata, enhancing document management and archiving processes. However, due to its proprietary nature, XIF files require specific software from Xerox or compatible applications for viewing and editing.
- A WEBP file is an image saved in the WebP (pronounced "Weppy") raster image format developed by Google for web graphics. It is designed to reduce image file sizes over standard JPEG compression while maintaining the same or similar quality. WEBP files allow images to be downloaded more quickly.
