About JPEG
JPEG is the standard lossy image format, named after the Joint Photographic Experts Group that published it in 1992. It shrinks photos to a fraction of their raw size by discarding fine detail.
Photos from cameras and phones, images on the web and email attachments; every device and app opens it.
JPEG has no transparency, stores 8 bits per colour channel, and loses a little more quality every time it is saved again.
Convert JPEG to TIFF online free, no account required — TIFF is a flexible image format for print, scanning and archiving.
Change JPEG to TIFF without losing quality — convert JPEG to TIFF free in your browser.
Why does my photo get worse every time I edit and save it as JPG? Each save re-compresses the image and piles new artifacts on the old ones — working from a lossless original and exporting once to JPG avoids the buildup.
About TIFF
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a flexible image format from 1986 that can store lossless or lossy images, several pages and high bit depths in one file.
Scanning, printing and publishing, and archiving master images.
Uncompressed or losslessly compressed TIFFs are very large, and most web browsers do not display TIFF.
Why convert photos to TIFF? For print and archiving: no compression surprises, deep colour support, and every photo lab and printer accepts it.
What changes when you convert JPEG to TIFF
- The JPEG picture is re-encoded as TIFF at the default quality settings, so it looks close to the original but is not bit-identical.
Settings you can change
Before you convert JPEG to TIFF, you can adjust: Width, Height, Scale fit, Crop position, Never enlarge, Quality, Lossless, Progressive, Remove metadata, Auto-orient from EXIF, Rotate, and Background.
Limits
Each plan sets a maximum file size and a number of conversions per day, and video and audio files also have a maximum length. Guests can convert files up to 100 megabytes and 5 per day; a free account raises this to 500 megabytes and 25 per day; paid plans go up to 100 gigabytes.
Your converted TIFF file is kept for 2 hours, then deleted.
