    The details

    What happens when you convert between document formats

    The print and scan format. Designed to be edited, not to be small. The document is opened in a layout engine and re-saved in the target format, mapping each style onto the closest equivalent in the new format. The result is a the default photo format. every camera, every phone and every printer speaks it, produced entirely inside your browser.

    What survives

    • The text and the paragraph structure
    • Most formatting: fonts, sizes, colours, alignment, lists and tables
    • Embedded images

    What changes

    • Styles that have no equivalent are approximated
    • The file may gain or lose features the target format does not support

    Where it goes wrong

    • Styles are usually mapped by name, so renaming a style before converting can lose the mapping
    • The target format may not support the same page size or margins

    Why anyone would do this

    Different teams use different formats, and the content should not be held hostage by that.

    About the format

    The print and scan format.

    A flexible tagged container. It can hold raw uncompressed pixels, lossless compression, or several pages at once, with layers and alpha channels.

    Where it is good
    • The reference format for scanners, printers and publishing
    • Can carry multiple pages in a single file
    • Lossless options that keep every last pixel of detail
    Where it falls short
    • Very large files, especially uncompressed
    • Overkill for anything on a screen
    • A confusing format to open without the right software
    You will find it on
    Scanners, print shops, publishing, prepress

    The thing people miss

    A 300 DPI colour scan of one A4 page is around 25 MB as an uncompressed TIFF, and about 3 MB as a PDF.

    About the target

    The default photo format.

    A lossy, block-based compression called JPEG. The file is a grid of small blocks, each one stored slightly differently from the last, and the decoder guesses the missing detail when it opens.

    • Universally supported — it opens everywhere, on every device, in every browser
    • Very small files for the quality it delivers
    • Camera phones, scanners and social platforms all default to it

    Questions

    TIFF conversion questions

    What actually happens to my TIFF file when I convert it to JPG?

    The document is opened in a layout engine and re-saved in the target format, mapping each style onto the closest equivalent in the new format. So the TIFF file is unpacked, the content is laid out, and the result is written out as JPG. The text and the paragraph structure survives unchanged.

    Will converting TIFF to JPG reduce the quality?

    Partly. Styles that have no equivalent are approximated The text itself is never re-typed, so no words are lost.

    Is my TIFF file uploaded to a server?

    No. This TIFF to JPG conversion runs as JavaScript inside your browser tab. The file is read from your device and the result is written back to your device, so there is no upload step, no file-size limit and no copy of your TIFF file on any server.

    Do I need an account or will there be a watermark?

    Neither. There is no sign-up step, no email capture and no watermark on the output. The only limits are the ones your own device imposes.

    What is the most common mistake people make when converting TIFF to JPG?

    Styles are usually mapped by name, so renaming a style before converting can lose the mapping

    Why would somebody convert TIFF to JPG at all?

    Different teams use different formats, and the content should not be held hostage by that. In short: scanning a document for professional printing

    Something most people do not know about TIFF?

    A 300 DPI colour scan of one A4 page is around 25 MB as an uncompressed TIFF, and about 3 MB as a PDF.
