The resulting filesize would still be the same. A scanner with 14bit
color resolution would still be saved in the standard 16bit file format. I
have seen a reference to a 12bit TIFF format, and a software which would
read it ... but I've never seen a reference or a software which could read a
14bit TIFF format ... therefore, all scanner softwares adhere to putting
highbits into 16bit file formats.
