TIFF format
Tagged-Image File Format (TIFF, TIF) is used to exchange files between applications and computer platforms. TIFF is
a flexible bitmap image format supported by virtually all paint, image-editing, and page-layout applications. Also,
virtually all desktop scanners can produce TIFF images. Lightroom supports large documents saved in TIFF format (up
to 100 million pixels with pixel dimensions of no more than 10,000 on a side). However, most other applications,
including older versions of Photoshop (pre-Photoshop CS), do not support documents with file sizes greater than 2 GB.
The TIFF format provides greater compression and industry compatibility than Photoshop format (PSD), and is the
recommended format for exchanging files between Lightroom and Photoshop. In Lightroom, you can export TIFF
image files with a bit depth of 8 bits or 16 bits per channel.
JPEG format
Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) format is commonly used to display photographs and other continuous-
tone images in web photo galleries, slideshows, presentations, and other online services. JPEG retains all color infor-
mation in an RGB image but compresses file size by selectively discarding data. A JPEG image is automatically
decompressed when opened. In most cases, the Best Quality setting produces a result indistinguishable from the
original.
Photoshop format (PSD)
Photoshop format (PSD) is the standard Photoshop file format. To import and work with a multi-layered PSD file in
Lightroom, the file must have been saved in Photoshop with the Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility
preference turned on. You’ll find the option in the Photoshop file handling preferences. Lightroom saves PSD files
with a bit depth or 8 bits or 16 bits per channel.
