== Description ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notation Interchange File Format (NIFF) is a binary file format for storage and transfer of musical notation, based on the [[RIFF|Resource Interchange File Format]]. It was designed as part of a collaborative effort by a number of music software companies with the aim of creating a universal file format for musical notation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the NIFF format is still supported by a number of software packages, official development of the format has ceased and it is generally considered to be obsolete.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are / were two separate proposals for an XML-based NIFF format - [http://niffty.sourceforge.net/xml/index.html NIFF XML] and [http://www.music-notation.info/en/niffml/niffml.html NIFFML]&lt;br /&gt;
