Damaged, invalid or corrupted image files cannot be uploaded. Should you encounter any difficulties while attempting to upload TIFF files to the platform, please verify the following:

  • Ensure that there are no multiple layers within the TIFF file.
  • Confirm the absence of transparency or luminance masks within the TIFF file.
  • Make sure that you have not embedded a custom color profile in the TIFF file.
  • Avoid using "Old-Style JPEG" compression (Compression Mode 6).
  • Opt for the "Macintosh" format instead of the "IBM PC" format.
