About TIFF Files
TIFF supports the interface of digital image data between systems with different architectures. Creo supports the export and import of TIFF in all graphics modes.
You can use TIFF to store graphical and textual information in a bitmap format and later exchange it between Creo and different application programs. Creo supports TIFF in Palette color (level 3) mode, making color images available. RGB TIFF can be exported on machines capable of exporting RGB TIFF (machines that run a STARBASE or OPEN GL graphics mode). You can import files in snapshot TIFF format only in the Drawing mode.
