## TIFF vs SVG

|  | TIFF | SVG |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Full name | Tagged Image File Format | Scalable Vector Graphics |
| Type | Image | Vector |

| MIME type | image/tiff | image/svg+xml |
| Best for | print production, scanned documents and photo archives | logos, icons, illustrations and responsive web graphics |

**TIFF:** TIFF is a flexible, high-quality raster format used in printing, scanning and archiving. It can hold multiple pages and high bit depths.

**SVG:** SVG describes graphics as shapes and paths in XML, so it stays perfectly sharp at any size and is natively supported by every browser.
