What This Tool Does

Converts PNG images to TIFF format entirely in your browser. TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is the industry standard for print production, professional photography, desktop publishing, and long-term archiving. The conversion is lossless — every pixel from your PNG is preserved exactly in the TIFF output. No server upload, no account, no file size limits imposed by a backend.

Who This Is For

  • Photographers preparing images for professional print labs that require TIFF input
  • Graphic designers exporting assets for desktop publishing workflows (InDesign, Quark)
  • Archivists converting PNG screenshots or scans to TIFF for long-term preservation
  • Pre-press professionals who need uncompressed or lossless-compressed image files
  • Anyone whose print service provider or client specifically requests TIFF format

Example: Input: design.png (screen-resolution graphic) → Output: design.tiff (print-ready, lossless, accepted by all professional printing workflows)

💡 Need to go the other direction? Try TIFF to PNG for web-optimised lossless images. For maximum compression, use PNG to JPG. To convert to next-gen web format, try Image to WebP.

How It Works

1
Drop your PNG filesDrag multiple .png files onto the drop zone, or click Browse Files. Thumbnails generate immediately from the browser's built-in image decoder.
2
Click Convert to TIFFEach PNG is decoded to raw pixel data via a canvas element, then encoded as a valid TIFF file using a pure-JavaScript TIFF writer. The entire process runs in your browser memory.
3
Download your TIFFsDownload files individually or check "Download as ZIP" for a single timestamped archive. The tool resets after export.

🔒 Privacy & Security

All decoding and encoding runs entirely in your browser. PNG files are never sent to any server — they stay in your browser's memory from load to download. This is especially important for confidential design work, client images, or sensitive documents scanned as PNG.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert PNG to TIFF?
TIFF is the preferred format for print production, professional photography archiving, and publishing workflows. Many print labs, publishers, and pre-press services specifically require TIFF input. Converting PNG to TIFF ensures your images meet professional industry standards without any quality loss.
Is the conversion truly lossless?
Yes — this tool preserves all pixel data exactly. The PNG is decoded to raw RGBA pixel data and re-encoded as a TIFF with lossless storage. There is no quality degradation, resampling, or compression artefacts in the output.
Can I convert multiple files at once?
Yes — drop up to 25 or more files at once. The tool processes them sequentially, shows per-file status badges, and lets you download all TIFFs individually or as a single timestamped ZIP.
Will transparency be preserved?
Yes — the TIFF output uses 32-bit RGBA encoding, which preserves the full alpha channel from your source PNG. Transparent areas remain fully transparent in the output TIFF file.
Is this tool free with no limits?
Yes — completely free with no file size limits, no per-conversion limits, and no account required. Processing happens in your browser so we never see your files.
What is the ZIP file named?
The ZIP is named dataconversioncenter_png_to_tiff_YYYYMMDDHHMM.zip using your local time — for example dataconversioncenter_png_to_tiff_202603051709.zip.
