Convert TIFF to PNG — Lossless Quality, Web Compatible

Convert bulky TIFF files to lossless PNG for web, editing, and sharing — free, browser-based, zero uploads. Full quality retained.

Why Convert TIFF to PNG?

TIFF is the archival standard — PNG makes that quality accessible and shareable

Lossless TIFF Decoding

TIFF files often contain 16-bit or higher bit-depth data from scanners and cameras. The PNG output captures this at full fidelity — no quality lost in conversion.

Web-Ready Output

TIFF is not supported in browsers. PNG is universally supported and can be embedded in websites, emails, and documents immediately — without any plugin or viewer.

Universal Software Compatibility

PNG works in every image editor, browser, CMS, and design tool. Convert from TIFF to PNG once and use the result anywhere without compatibility friction.

How to Convert TIFF to PNG

1

Upload your TIFF file — single image or multi-page document. Drag & drop multiple TIFF files onto the upload area at once to batch convert, or click to browse your file system. Files up to 50 MB are supported.

2

The tool decodes your TIFF at its native bit depth — including 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit TIFF files — and renders a pixel-perfect lossless PNG. Any alpha transparency and color profiles in the TIFF are respected during the conversion.

3

Download your PNG immediately. For single files, the download is instant. For batch conversions, all PNG files are bundled into a ZIP archive so you can grab everything in one click. No quality is lost — the PNG is pixel-for-pixel identical to the source.

TIFF to PNG — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about converting TIFF image files to PNG format.

Does TIFF to PNG conversion lose any quality?

No. Both TIFF and PNG are lossless formats. The conversion process decodes TIFF pixel data and re-encodes it as lossless PNG without any quality degradation. The resulting PNG is pixel-for-pixel identical to the TIFF source.

Can I convert a multi-page TIFF to PNG?

Yes. Each page of a multi-page TIFF is extracted and converted to an individual PNG file. You can download all pages as a ZIP archive or convert specific pages individually.

Why is PNG smaller than TIFF for the same image?

TIFF files often include extensive metadata, multiple resolution layers (TIFF pyramid), ICC color profiles, and uncompressed raw data. PNG uses DEFLATE lossless compression which can significantly reduce file size while preserving all pixel data exactly.

Does the conversion preserve EXIF or TIFF metadata?

PNG supports limited metadata compared to TIFF. Basic metadata like resolution info and simple EXIF fields may be transferred, but extensive TIFF metadata (multiple ICC profiles, EXIF XMP data, IPTC tags, and multi-layer color space information) may not fully carry over to the PNG output. For workflows where rich metadata preservation is critical — such as professional archiving, medical imaging, or print production — always retain the original TIFF file alongside the PNG derivative.

Will TIFF transparency convert to PNG correctly?

Yes. TIFF files with alpha channels convert to PNG with the alpha channel fully intact. Transparent and semi-transparent areas are preserved exactly, making this conversion safe for design assets and masked photography.

Is my TIFF file sent to a server?

No. All conversion runs locally in your browser. TIFF files — which often contain high-value photography, medical images, or confidential document scans — never leave your device or get uploaded anywhere.
