TIFF
TIFF image files for conversion testing
Test TIFF uploads, multi-page handling, tag parsing, and MIME detection with signature checks and local image workflows.
Verified . The local inspector checks the TIFF byte-order mark; IFD entries are compared against real TIFF inputs, while image baselines come from the PNG generator.
Identify TIFF files
- Magic signature
49 49 2A 00 or 4D 4D 00 2A (byte order)- Registered MIME
image/tiff
TIFF is a tag-based format with IFD directories describing strips or tiles of pixel data. Readers must parse the IFD chain for the byte order in use, so a valid byte-order mark does not prove every page decodes.
Choosing TIFF
TIFF is a flexible raster format for print, scanning, and archival, readable by viewers and converters with varying multi-page support. The local generator does not produce TIFF files, so validate TIFF inputs with the file inspector and use the PNG generator for deterministic local image baselines.
Confirm the II* or MM* byte order mark instead of trusting the extension.
Test multi-page and tiled variants separately from single images.
Check compression tags against what your pipeline actually decodes.
Common test cases
- Image upload validation
- Multi-page and tag handling
- Conversion pipeline tests
Invalid and boundary cases
- Multi-page IFD chain with a broken second page
- Proprietary tags unknown to the decoder
- Mismatched byte order between header and IFDs
