Convert TIF to JXL

TIF, short for Tagged Image File Format, is a flexible and adaptable file format that was introduced in the mid-1980s by Aldus Corporation, now Adobe Systems. Primarily used for storing high-quality raster graphics and images, TIF files are widely adopted in professional environments such as graphic design, medical imaging, and desktop publishing due to their support for lossless compression and extensive metadata capabilities. The format's longevity and adaptability have made it a staple in image archiving and complex image editing tasks, ensuring consistency and high resolution across various platforms and applications.

The JPEG XL (JXL) file extension, is a next-generation image format developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group, combining Google's PIK and Cloudinary's FUIF formats. It supports both lossy and lossless compression, offering up to 60% better compression efficiency compared to traditional JPEG, while maintaining high image quality. Standardized in 2021, JPEG XL is designed for web delivery, professional photography, and digital printing, supporting ultra-high-resolution images, wide color gamuts, and advanced features like progressive decoding and multiple layers.
