Yes, but JPEG 2000 and DjVu are also lossy. Both separate the image into
different information layers, where the picture layer uses a lossy
compression scheme. MrSID from Lizardtech might be appropriate, but it
generates huge files. What is the requirement, Dan?

>>I am specifically interested in JPEG vs. color TIFF for comparison

It depends on your requirements. JPEG is a lossy format that compresses
files by losing pixels. TIFF is lossless but makes for very large files, we
have some that are several GB in size.
As an alternative, new compression routines are available. JPEG 2000 and
DjVu are two that you might want to consider.
