TIFF at a glance
TIFF
TIFF emerged in desktop publishing and imaging workflows as a versatile raster format that could carry tags, compression choices, color information, and high-quality scan/print data more gracefully than simpler interchange targets.
UV Map at a glance
UV Map
UV mapping became foundational once 3D graphics pipelines standardized on the idea of flattening mesh surfaces into 2D texture space for painting, baking, and material assignment.
