About the G4 format
G4 — CCITT Group 4 FAX
G4 is the more advanced monochrome fax compression format defined by ITU-T for Group 4 fax machines and TIFF storage. Using Modified Modified READ (MMR) compression, it achieves significantly better compression than G3 and is the standard for TIFF-based document archiving.
Common uses
- High-compression document fax archiving
- TIFF G4 document scanning for records management
- Legal and government document storage
- Converting G4 fax archives to PDF
About the MAC format

MAC is the native bitmap format of MacPaint, Apple's original paint application bundled with the first Macintosh in 1984. MacPaint files are monochrome (black and white) 576×720 pixel images that represent one of the earliest consumer bitmap graphics formats in computing history.
Common uses
- Recovering early Macintosh MacPaint artwork
- Historical computing and art preservation
