TWFF_TIFF - Used for document imaging
TWFF_PICT - Native Macintosh format
TWFF_BMP - Native Microsoft format
TWFF_XBM - Used for document imaging
TWFF_JFIF - Wrapper for JPEG images

TWFF_SPIFF - A standard from JPEG, intended to replace JFIF, also supports JBIG

Use this ICAP to determine which formats are available for file transfers, and set the context for other capability negotiations such as ICAP_COMPRESSION. Be sure to use the DG_CONTROL / DAT_SETUPFILEXFER / MSG_SET or the DG_CONTROL / DAT_SETUPFILEXFER2 / MSG_SET operation to specify the format to be used for a particular acquisition.
