Multipage TIFF images

The TIFF image format allows multiple images to be stored in the same TIFF file. This is typically used to store digitized pages of a multipage document such as a fax.

To integrate with some other applications, LightZone can save your edited photos as a two-page TIFF file:

Other applications that display multipage TIFF images show the first page by default. Therefore, the first page is like a full-sized preview of your edited photo. When the two-page TIFF file is reopened with LightZone, however, the tool stack is re-applied to your original photo on the second page and you can resume editing where you left off.

A disadvantage of two-page TIFF files is that they are, of course, twice as big. Therefore, they are recommended only when integrating with either Aperture or Lightroom.
