+Saving Tiff Images
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The :py:meth:`~PIL.Image.Image.save` method can take the following keyword arguments:
+
+**tiffinfo** 
+    A :py:class:`~PIL.TiffImagePlugin.ImageFileDirectory` object or dict
+    object containing tiff tags and values. The TIFF field type is
+    autodetected for Numeric and string values, any other types
+    require using an :py:class:`~PIL.TiffImagePlugin.ImageFileDirectory`
+    object and setting the type in
+    :py:attr:`~PIL.TiffImagePlugin.ImageFileDirectory.tagtype` with
+    the appropriate numerical value from
+    ``TiffTags.TYPES``.
+ 
+    .. versionadded:: 2.3.0
+
+**compression**
+    A string containing the desired compression method for the
+	file. (valid only with libtiff installed) Valid compression
+	methods are: ``[None, "tiff_ccitt", "group3", "group4",
+	"tiff_jpeg", "tiff_adobe_deflate", "tiff_thunderscan",
+	"tiff_deflate", "tiff_sgilog", "tiff_sgilog24", "tiff_raw_16"]``
+
+These arguments to set the tiff header fields are an alternative to using the general tags available through tiffinfo.
