JPEG XL
The true next-generation successor designed to replace JPEG, PNG, and GIF entirely.
JPEG XL (JXL) is the most advanced image format currently in existence. Unlike WebP and AVIF, which are derived from video codecs, JPEG XL was designed from the ground up specifically for still images. This gives it unique superpowers, such as the ability to losslessly re-compress existing JPEG files to be 20% smaller without losing a single bit of data. It offers best-in-class lossless compression (beating PNG), best-in-class lossy compression (beating JPEG), and supports features needed for professional workflows like CMYK, layers, and ultra-high resolutions. However, its adoption has been slowed by political battles, most notably Google Chrome's decision to remove support in 2022, though Apple has since added full support in Safari 17.
JPEG XL uses a combination of two coding modes: VarDCT (Variable Block-size DCT) for lossy images and Modular Mode for lossless/artistic images. Its 'killer feature' is legacy JPEG transcoding: it can take the DCT coefficients from an old JPEG file and repackage them into the more efficient JXL container. This process is reversible, meaning you can convert your entire JPEG library to JXL to save 20% space, and convert them back to the exact original byte-for-byte JPEGs later if needed. It also supports 'progressive decoding' far better than any other format, allowing a high-quality preview to appear almost instantly.
The JPEG committee began the call for proposals for a next-gen standard in 2017. The final standard (ISO/IEC 18181) was published in 2021/2022, combining the best parts of Google's PIK and Cloudinary's FUIF proposals. Despite being technically superior, its rollout hit a wall when the Chrome team removed the experimental flag in late 2022, citing lack of ecosystem interest. However, Apple's adoption in 2023 (iOS 17/macOS 14) has breathed new life into the format.
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format)
The venerable standard for print, scanning, and archival.
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is one of the oldest and most robust image formats still in use. Created in 1986 by Aldus (later acquired by Adobe), it was designed to be a universal standard for desktop publishing and scanning. TIFF is a container format, meaning it can hold almost any kind of image data—compressed or uncompressed, RGB or CMYK, 8-bit or 32-bit. This flexibility makes it the go-to choice for the printing industry, professional photographers, and archivists who need a format that preserves maximum quality and metadata without the compatibility headaches of proprietary RAW files.
A TIFF file is built around 'tags' that describe the image data. This allows it to support a vast array of features, including multiple pages (used for faxes and document scans), multiple layers (like a PSD file), and various color spaces like Lab and CMYK that are essential for printing. TIFF supports multiple compression schemes. The most common are LZW (lossless) and ZIP (lossless), but it can also hold JPEG (lossy) data. Uncompressed TIFFs are standard for archival because they are future-proof and require no decoding algorithm that might become obsolete.
TIFF was the first format to bring high-resolution, grayscale, and later color images to the desktop publishing revolution of the late 80s. While JPEG took over the web and consumer photography, TIFF remained the king of the pre-press and scanning world. It hasn't changed much since Revision 6.0 in 1992, which is a testament to its robust design.
