DaVince Tools uses the TIFF 6.0 Specification as its basis for TIFF file support. This specification specifies a number of file compression methods and image types. The following chart shows the compression methods supported by DaVince Tools:
| Compression

| None (1) | No | Yes |
| PackBits(32773) | No | Yes |
| Modified Huffman(2) | Yes | Yes |
| Group 3 (3) | Yes | Yes |
| Group 4 (4) | Yes | Yes |
| LZW (5) | Yes | Version 3:Yes/All previous versions:No |

Quick mode is supported for a compression method when the compression method is supported by both TIFF and PDF specifications. If a compression method is not supported in quick mode, then archive mode is automatically invoked.
