TIFF to PNG converter

Convert TIFF to PNG in your browser: your files are never uploaded, there is no limit on how many you convert, and the result is a lossless PNG with transparency kept. Drop in one TIFF or a whole batch and download the PNG files straight away.

    TIFF to PNG

    Everything happens in your browser. Your files are not uploaded.

    How it works

    1. Choose your TIFF files

      Drop them into the box, choose them on your device or paste with Ctrl+V.

    2. Converted automatically

      Each file is converted to PNG straight away in your browser.

    3. Download

      File by file, or everything at once as a ZIP file.

    Lossless, but smaller

    TIFF and PNG both keep every pixel exactly, and PNG compresses them. Converting a TIFF to PNG therefore gives the identical picture in a file that is much smaller and that every browser, editor and app can open. It is the right choice for line art, diagrams, scanned documents, screenshots and graphics with text.

    Transparency is kept

    If your TIFF has an alpha channel, the PNG gets the same transparent areas, so cut-out artwork stays cut out. Scans normally have none, and give an ordinary opaque PNG.

    Photos: think about JPG

    A scanned photo as PNG is still large, because PNG cannot compress photographic detail as well as JPG does. If you only want to share or show the picture, TIFF to JPG is far smaller, and TIFF to WebP smaller still. Use PNG when you need to keep everything: for editing, for archive copies that must open everywhere, and for line drawings.

    Details

    • Pages. In a TIFF with several images, the largest one is used.
    • Size. Large scans give large PNGs. Shrink image first if you need less.
    • Colour. The converter produces RGB, as shown in the preview.
    • Back to TIFF. For print software that asks for TIFF, PNG to TIFF reverses the step.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is any quality lost?

    No. PNG is lossless, so the pixels of the TIFF are kept exactly.

    Is the PNG smaller than the TIFF?

    Usually yes, since TIFF files are normally uncompressed and PNG compresses without loss. For photos it is still big.

    Is the transparency of my TIFF kept?

    Yes, if the TIFF has an alpha channel.

    Is my TIFF uploaded?

    No. The PNG is made in your browser, so the TIFF never leaves your device. A TIFF can be tens of megabytes, so converting on your own device also saves the upload time. There is no limit on file size or number of files, apart from your device's memory.
