JPG to TIFF Converter

Converting JPG to TIFF wraps the decoded image in an archival container that print shops, scientific software, and imaging pipelines expect. TIFF supports lossless compression, multi-page documents, 16-bit depth, and color profiles that JPG cannot carry.

What changes when you convert JPG to TIFF

TIFF won't restore what JPG compression discarded. The file will typically be 5–10× larger than the JPG. Quality is identical to the JPG at the pixel level; everything you gain is in tooling and metadata support.

When to use this conversion

  • Submitting images to print shops, magazines, or publishers that require TIFF deliverables
  • Feeding photos to GIS, medical imaging, or scientific software that expects TIFF input
  • Archiving JPG photos in a format that supports extensive metadata and lossless further edits
  • Creating multi-page TIFF documents from a sequence of JPG scans

Where the output plays

TIFF is supported by Photoshop, Affinity, GIMP, and virtually all professional imaging software. Print RIPs and prepress tools expect TIFF. Browsers don't natively display TIFF; it's a production and archival format, not a web format.

About these formats

JPG (JPEG)

JPG (JPEG) is a 1992 lossy photo format that became the default way to store photographs on the web. It uses a discrete cosine transform plus quantization, tuned so that errors fall where human vision is least sensitive. No transparency, no animation, but excellent for photos at 70–90% quality.

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format)

TIFF is a 1986 container format used throughout professional photography, print production, and archival imaging. It supports lossless compression, multiple pages, 16-bit-per-channel color, embedded color profiles, and high bit-depth grayscale. Print shops, medical imaging, and GIS systems expect TIFF.

How It Works

  1. Add your JPG files Drag JPG images onto the page or click to pick them from your file browser. Batch uploads are fine.
  2. Choose TIFF settings Pick quality or compression settings for the TIFF output. Defaults match common target use cases.
  3. Convert in your browser The converter runs locally via WebAssembly. Nothing uploads. Progress shows per file so you know exactly what's happening.
  4. Download TIFF files Grab each converted file individually, or download the whole batch as a single ZIP.

FAQ

Will TIFF improve the JPG's quality?

No. TIFF preserves pixels losslessly, but the source JPG's artifacts are already baked into those pixels. You get an archival-friendly container, not higher fidelity.

Can I view TIFF files in a browser?

Most browsers don't display TIFF natively. TIFF is meant for professional imaging software, print workflows, and archival storage, not web delivery.

Are my files private?

Yes. The converter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your images are never uploaded, never sent to a server, and never leave your device.

Is there a file size limit?

There's no hard limit, but because everything runs in your browser you're bounded by available memory. Very large images (over a few hundred megapixels) can hit browser memory limits. Process in smaller batches if you run into issues.
