Below is the IETF's announcement notice for the second draft of the first
extension set for TIFF-FX. This extension, TIFF-FX Extension Set 1, focuses
on introduction of the new JBIG2 encoding for B&W and colored text, see
sections E1.5, E1.6 and E1.7. JBIG2 provides 3 to 5x compression advantage
over G4 (MMR) and JBIG encodings. The extension also introduces a set of new
higher resolutions (e.g. 300x600, 400x800, 600x600, 600x1200 and 1200x1200
dpi) and associated image widths (section E1.3), provisions use more than 3
layers in MRC model of Profile M (section E1.4), and provision to signal
when more than one profile is being used within a file (section E1.2).
Please review and submit your comments on the IETF IFax Working Group dl at

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
