TIFF was the acronym of "Tagged Image File Format" as of it's creation by Aldus. If Adobe's official position is that this is not anymore the case you may want to edit the TIFF Wikipedia article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TIFF to reflect this situation.

I've been doing some research on TIFF for a little while and in my findings I have seen the acronym dropped between revisions four and five. I was wondering if TIFF is TIFF (like SOAP is now SOAP) or if it still stands for Tagged Image File Format (or Tag Image File Format).

Any help and/or references would be much appreciated.
