title: Image file types indexed by Google: is TIFF part of it or not?
body: <p>The image file types indexed by Google are defined:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>On the <a href="https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/2598805?hl=en" rel="nofollow">Google Webmaster / Search Console Help</a> where the TIFF format is not present (latest update 2015):</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Google can index the following image types:</p>
  
  <pre><code>BMP
  GIF
  JPEG
  PNG
  WebP
  SVG
  </code></pre>
  
  <ol start="2">
  <li>But on the <a href="https://www.google.com/support/enterprise/static/gsa/docs/admin/72/gsa_doc_set/file_formats/file_formats.html#1081645" rel="nofollow">Google Search Appliance Documentation</a> the TIFF format is present (latest update 2013):</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>TIFF Group 5 &amp; 6 - tiff - Versions through 6</p>
  
  <p>TIFF CCITT Group 3 &amp; 4 -tiff - Versions through 6</p>
  
  <p>Can someone confirm that TIFF is part or not part of the supported image file types that Google can index or not? Or give me a hint how I could verify this in a simple, fast and efficient way? </p>
  
  <p>For now my reference is the first link with the Search Console Help (which was updated in 2015), but the second link (from 2013) has given me doubts... Or am I mixing two different things?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for your help!</p>
