CCITT Group 4 is a widely-used lossless compression algorithm for bitonal images. It is also known as T6, T.6, Fax4, G4, Group 4, or ITU-T Fax Group 4. It is frequently used in TIFF images created by scanning bitonal images.It uses Modified Modified READ (MMR) compression. MMR is probably another synonym for CCITT Group 4.
