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.
Convert TIFF to AVIF online free, no account required — AVIF is a modern image format based on the AV1 video codec.
Change TIFF to AVIF without losing quality — convert TIFF to AVIF free in your browser.
Why are my scanned TIFF files hundreds of megabytes? TIFF keeps every detail for print and archival, usually uncompressed — after the archive copy is safe, a JPG or PNG version is far easier to send and share.
About AVIF
AVIF is an image format based on the AV1 video codec, published by the Alliance for Open Media in 2019. It supports lossy and lossless compression, transparency, HDR and wide colour.
Modern websites, which use it for images smaller than WebP or JPEG at similar quality.
Encoding AVIF is slow, and older software and operating systems may not open it.
Why convert images to AVIF? It is the smallest format today’s browsers accept, often half the size of JPG, with HDR and wide-colour support on top.
