          I don’t know about fax machines but a lot of scanners used it. You can also have multi-page .tiff files of lossless images, though they’re generally huge files.

      You’re confusing it with TGIF, or Today’s Girls in Files, an ancient file format for animated erotica with poor colour depth.
