Both formats, briefly
XBMIN
An XBM file is an image written as C source code: an array of bytes with the width and height defined above it. That was the point in the X Window System, where a cursor or icon could be compiled straight into a program. It is monochrome and uncompressed, so it only makes sense for small, simple graphics. You still find XBM in Unix desktop source trees and in embedded projects that need a bitmap baked into the binary.
TIFFOUT
TIFF is for images that are being kept rather than shipped. One file can hold high bit depth data, several color spaces, layers, alpha and multiple pages, stored compressed or completely uncompressed, along with detailed metadata. Print production, scanning services, archives and medical imaging standardized on it for those reasons. Expect large files, and convert to JPG or PNG when the picture actually has to travel.
