TIFF
When the decompressor receives a TIFF file, it loads the previously saved TIFF structure and decode the TIFF data. The TIFF format is a lossy compression format. It also stores the compression information at the beginning of the compressed data, but it does not save the decompressed data. So, the decompressor creates a TIFF file which contains the previously saved TIFF data and the compressed data.
