About TIFF to JPG Converter

The TIFF to JPG Converter allows you to upload TIFF image files and convert them into high-quality JPG format quickly and efficiently.

What Is a TIFF File?

TIFF stands for Tagged Image File Format. It is a high-quality image format commonly used for:

• Professional photography

• Scanned documents

• Print publishing

• Archival storage

TIFF files can store images in different color modes and may include transparency (alpha channel). Because of their flexibility and quality, TIFF files are often larger in size compared to JPG.

What Is a JPG (JPEG) File?

JPG (or JPEG – Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a widely used image format known for:

• Smaller file size

• Web compatibility

• Efficient compression

• Broad device support

JPG format does not support transparency and requires images to be in RGB color mode.

Why Convert TIFF to JPG?

There are several practical reasons to convert TIFF images to JPG:

• Reduce file size for easier sharing

• Make images web-compatible

• Improve browser support

• Convert images for websites or online platforms

• Remove transparency when needed

This tool simplifies that process and ensures proper format handling during conversion.
