What is a CIFF file?

CIFF files mostly belong to BarTender. CIFF files are used for label design and store configuration data in an XML format.
They primarily serve as design files within the BarTender system for creating labels, which may include text, barcodes, images, and other printable elements. The file structure is organized using XML, making the data clear and editable if needed.

This file type is tightly linked to CAD labeling processes.
It is ideal for generating label templates that drive automated printing systems.
You can view the XML code with a text editor, though using BarTender ensures correct rendering.
