- 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.
- WebP Image (WEP) is an image file format developed by Google in 2010. It is based on the VP8 video format and is used to create smaller, higher quality, and lossy compressed images. It is supported by most major web browsers and is commonly used for web graphics.
