Image to TIFF Converter

Convert common raster images to TIFF directly in your browser. Resize, preserve transparency or choose a background, convert multiple images, and download TIFF files without sending the source image to a conversion server.

or choose files from your device to create TIFF files

Your images stay on your device. Conversion runs locally in your browser.

TIFF can retain a transparent layer when the source supports it.

Creates a standard TIFF raster image with RGB pixels and an alpha channel when transparency is preserved. TIFF output is uncompressed for predictable browser-side generation.

TIFF conversion, explained

Convert an image to TIFF without installing software

Use GetTransfy to convert supported JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP and browser-supported AVIF images to TIFF directly in your browser. You can resize images, preserve transparency or choose a background, convert a batch, and download TIFF files individually or as a ZIP. The core conversion runs locally in your browser, so the selected image does not need to be sent to a GetTransfy conversion server.

TIFF, or Tagged Image File Format, is commonly used in scanning, publishing, print and professional raster workflows where image compatibility and working-file quality matter more than a small web download. A format conversion does not restore missing detail, so a TIFF created from a compressed JPG contains the decoded JPG pixels rather than information that was already discarded.

What is a TIFF file?

TIFF is a flexible raster image format that can store image data together with information such as dimensions, colour data and resolution metadata. It supports different image configurations and compression methods, which is why TIFF appears in many professional imaging and document workflows.

Changing JPG to TIFF does not automatically make the image sharper. The main benefit is moving the image into a TIFF-oriented workflow. If you still have the original high-quality source, use that source rather than converting a lower-quality copy.

Why convert JPG, PNG or WebP to TIFF?

Print and publishingTIFF is commonly accepted in professional raster workflows where a larger working file is preferable to a web-optimized image.
Workflow compatibilityConvert when a client, editor, scanner workflow or production application specifically expects TIFF.
Transparency supportKeep transparent pixels when the source supports them, or choose a white or black background for an opaque result.

JPG to TIFF

JPG is designed for compact photographs and uses lossy compression. Converting JPG to TIFF can make the image suitable for a TIFF-based workflow, but it cannot undo JPEG compression.

PNG to TIFF

PNG is already lossless and can contain transparency. TIFF can be useful when the receiving workflow specifically requires TIFF. Preserve transparency to keep an alpha channel, or choose a background colour when transparency is not wanted.

WebP, GIF and BMP to TIFF

WebP and BMP are decoded as raster images and written to TIFF. Animated GIF input becomes a still image because this tool creates one TIFF output per selected file.

How to convert an image to TIFF

  1. Select images. Drag files into the converter or choose them from your device. Add one file or a batch.
  2. Choose size. Keep the original dimensions or fit the image inside a maximum width and height. Optional upscaling is available.
  3. Set transparency. Preserve transparent pixels, or fill them with white or black.
  4. Convert. Your browser decodes the image and generates the TIFF locally.
  5. Download. Save individual TIFF files or download the completed batch as a ZIP.

Tip: TIFF files can be much larger than JPG or WebP. Use dimensions appropriate for the final workflow instead of increasing the image size unnecessarily.

TIFF vs JPG, PNG and WebP

Choose the format based on the next step. TIFF is useful when the destination expects TIFF. JPG and WebP are generally better when small file size matters, while PNG is useful for lossless graphics and transparency.

How this TIFF converter handles your image

The tool is intentionally focused on the settings most users need: batch selection, resizing, transparency handling, progress feedback and downloads. The browser decodes the selected image and writes a TIFF locally rather than requiring a remote conversion API.

The generated output uses an uncompressed TIFF raster representation. This keeps the browser-side encoder simple and predictable, but it also means the resulting file can be large. That is a normal trade-off for high-resolution TIFF output and should be considered before downloading or sharing large files.

Quality, size and transparency explained

A TIFF extension does not guarantee better source quality. If the input is a JPG, the TIFF contains the decoded JPG image. Resizing can reduce or increase pixel dimensions, but it cannot create genuine source detail that was never captured.

When Preserve transparency is selected, the generated TIFF stores RGB image data with an alpha channel. If the destination requires an opaque image, white or black background mode replaces transparent areas before the TIFF is written.

For print or production work, choose dimensions based on the final physical size and the requirements of the application receiving the file. Keeping the original source is also useful if you later need a different export.

Supported formats and practical limits

Inputs include PNG, JPG, JPEG/JFIF, WebP, GIF, BMP and browser-supported AVIF. Each file is limited to 25 MB, a batch is limited to 150 MB, and decoded images are limited to 24 megapixels with a maximum side of 12,000 pixels. These limits help keep browser memory use manageable.

SVG, HEIC/HEIF, TIFF, PSD, PDF and RAW are not accepted on this page. AVIF support depends on the browser. Animated GIF files are converted as still images rather than into animated or multi-page TIFF sequences.

When should you convert JPG to TIFF?

Convert JPG to TIFF when a receiving application, client or production process expects TIFF, or when you need to move a raster image into a TIFF-based publishing, print, scanning or imaging workflow. Do not convert simply because TIFF sounds higher quality. If the original source is available, it is preferable to work from the highest-quality original rather than a compressed copy.

Image to TIFF converter FAQs

Can I convert JPG to TIFF for free?

Yes. Select a supported JPG, choose your settings and click Convert to TIFF. The browser generates the TIFF locally.

Can I convert PNG to TIFF with transparency?

Yes. Choose Preserve transparency to keep an alpha channel. You can also choose a white or black background for an opaque result.

Does JPG to TIFF improve image quality?

No. TIFF changes the container and workflow format. It cannot restore detail already lost through JPEG compression.

Can I convert multiple images to TIFF?

Yes. Add up to 30 supported images within the stated file and batch limits. Download each TIFF separately or use the ZIP option.

Will an animated GIF stay animated?

No. This converter creates one TIFF image from the decoded still frame.

Are my images uploaded?

The core conversion runs locally in your browser, so the image does not need to be sent to a GetTransfy conversion server.

Why is my TIFF larger than the JPG?

JPG uses lossy compression to reduce file size. This tool writes an uncompressed TIFF raster, so the output can be substantially larger.
