How to convert TIFF files
- 01Add your TIFF filesScanner output, fax archives, professional exports - any standard TIFF.
- 02Choose the output formatJPG for smaller documents, PNG for exact fidelity, WebP for balance.
- 03Download converted imagesUsable everywhere, from the same pixels the TIFF held.
Features
Built-in TIFF decoder
A WASM-decoded reader handles TIFF structure without external software.
Document-scanner output
The classic 'scanner gave me TIFFs' problem solves in seconds.
Fax-archive access
Legacy fax systems stored everything as TIFF; contents become readable again.
Quality control
Lossy targets expose quality settings; PNG stays lossless.
Privacy-critical design
Scanned contracts and medical documents never touch servers.
Batch archive processing
Folder-level TIFF archives convert systematically.
TIFF sources we rescue
Freeing trapped pixels
Accessibility
TIFF's complexity excludes casual viewers; converted files open everywhere.
Shareability
Email systems choke on TIFF attachments; JPG sails through.
Integration
Modern CMS and collaboration tools ignore TIFF but welcome conversions.
Space recovery
Uncompressed TIFFs shrink dramatically toward practical formats.
TIFF earned its niche, then overstayed it
TIFF solved real problems in desktop publishing's dawn: lossless storage, multiple color spaces, extensibility for professional needs. Print shops, scanning bureaus, and medical imaging adopted it enthusiastically, and those domains retain legitimate use today.
The format's flexibility became its liability. Tag-based structure accommodates dozens of compression schemes, color spaces, and vendor extensions - producing variant soup that generic software can't reliably parse. Web browsers pointedly refused TIFF support, cementing its exile from everyday computing.
Conversion bridges the professional-niche and consumer-world divide. A WASM-based decoder handles the structural complexity locally, then re-encoding toward JPG or PNG produces files that email clients, websites, and family members can actually open. The archive stays intact; accessibility arrives.
“Exhibit scans arrive as TIFFs from the copying bureau. Conversion makes them court-filing compatible.”
Margaret Foster - Paralegal
“Export images from our PACS convert for patient portals - TIFF confused everyone but the machines.”

“Author-supplied TIFF artwork converts for marketing use while print masters stay archival.”

Frequently asked questions
How does browser-based TIFF decoding work?
A compact WASM decoder loads on demand and parses TIFF structure locally - your files never leave the browser.
Which output format suits my TIFF?
JPG for scanned documents and photos, PNG for exact fidelity needs, WebP when size and quality both matter.
What about multi-page TIFFs?
Currently the first page converts. Multi-page extraction is on the roadmap.
Will conversion lose quality?
PNG output is lossless. JPG and WebP apply lossy compression at your chosen quality - high settings preserve scan legibility.
Are huge scanned TIFFs supported?
Files up to 60 MB process fine; very large scans may take a few extra seconds to decode.
Is my scanned document uploaded anywhere?
Never - decoding and conversion happen entirely within your browser.
