Converter WBMP to TIFF

WBMP is a raster image format that differs by using only two colors. WBMP files are a black and white bitmap image. It is a standard form for optimizing raster images for mobile devices in a single-bit color. The name is an abbreviation for Wireless Bitmap. WBMP is an analogue of the BMP graphic image format, but unlike it supports only monochrome 1-bit images. The WBMP format is widely used in mobile phones and PDAs; files of this format can be part of the forwarded SMS messages.

TIFF is a format that allows you to store raster graphics with tags. It was developed by Aldus Corporation in conjunction with Microsoft so that it can be used with PostScript. Aldus Corporation owns specifications. Subsequently, this company merged with Adobe Systems. It is she who now owns the copyright to these specifications. Typically, TIFF files (Tagged Image File Format) are with the extension .tiff or .tif. Aldus was specifically engaged in the development of the format in order to achieve the preservation of scanned images. The popularity of TIFF can be explained by the fact that it is preferred in order to store images that have a large color depth. The format is used to send faxes, scan, recognize texts. It is widely supported in the printing industry. TIFF was chosen as the main graphic format of the NeXTSTEP operating system. Then from this system TIFF support migrated to Mac OS X. At first, the format supported lossless compression. Then it was supplemented in order to support lossy compression in JPEG format. We emphasize that the maximum weight of a document, if stored in this form, is no more than 4 GB. To open a TIFF file larger than 2 GB, you must run Photoshop CS.
