About GIF to TIFF conversion
GIF is released by CompuServe in 1987 and is the universal support but limited by its age for short animations, simple graphics. TIFF was created by Aldus Corporation in 1986 and is best for print publishing, professional photography. Converting GIF to TIFF gives you a file that works in the tools and platforms where TIFF is required. GIF files can be a problem when their support is limited — converting to TIFF solves compatibility issues.
