TIFF to PNG Conversion FAQ
What does the TIFF to PNG converter do?
+
It takes a TIFF image and re-encodes the pixel data as PNG. Colour and resolution are preserved; the difference is the container and compression scheme.
Will transparency in my TIFF be preserved in the PNG?
+
Yes. Both TIFF and PNG support an alpha channel, so transparent and semi-transparent regions carry through unchanged.
Is the TIFF to PNG conversion reversible?
+
You can convert the PNG back to TIFF on this site. If either format involved is lossy, the round-trip is not bit-perfect even though it is visually or audibly close.
What output quality should I expect from TIFF to PNG?
+
Default settings target broadcast / web quality — visually identical to the source for most viewers. For archival use, pick the highest quality option in the converter settings.
What happens to the layers in my TIFF file?
+
They are flattened, permanently, into one composited image. Blend modes, masks, adjustment layers and editable text are all resolved into final pixels because PNG has no structure to hold them. Keep the TIFF as the working master and treat the PNG strictly as an export. TIFF handles CMYK, 16-bit depth, embedded ICC profiles and multi-page documents, which is exactly what print and archival workflows require. PNG is a poor photograph format: a photo saved as PNG is routinely five to ten times larger than the same image as JPG or WebP.
Will my CMYK colour survive the conversion to PNG?
+
It is converted to sRGB, because PNG has no CMYK mode. For screen use that is exactly what you want. For commercial print it is not — the gamut shift changes how saturated colours reproduce on press, so send the printer the original TIFF rather than the PNG.
Does the PNG keep the EXIF data from my TIFF?
+
By default yes, wherever the target has somewhere to put it — camera model, exposure settings, lens and GPS coordinates all carry across. GPS is the field worth thinking about: if the image is going to be published, use the strip-metadata option so you are not broadcasting where the photo was taken. TIFF is the Tagged Image File Format from 1986, and it is the format scanning, publishing and archiving industries standardised on.
Is anything lost converting between TIFF and PNG?
+
No pixel data, no. Both formats store the image without lossy compression, so the picture that comes out is identical to the one that went in and the conversion can be repeated indefinitely. What changes is file size, and which features travel — colour depth, embedded profiles, layers and animation are all supported unevenly between lossless formats. TIFF is a container more than a codec: it can hold uncompressed, LZW, ZIP or even JPEG data, at up to 32 bits per channel, with multiple pages in one file. PNG uses DEFLATE compression over filtered scanlines, so every pixel survives exactly, plus a full 8-bit alpha channel.
Is there a file-size limit when converting TIFF to PNG?
+
Anonymous uploads are capped at a generous default; signed-in free accounts get a higher cap, and Pro accounts have no per-file limit. Browser memory is usually the practical constraint long before our server-side limits kick in.
Can I batch-convert several TIFF files to PNG at once?
+
Yes. Drop or pick multiple TIFF files in one upload — the converter processes them in parallel and returns a ZIP of the PNG results. There is no need to repeat the upload step per file.
What happens to my TIFF files after the conversion?
+
Uploaded files and PNG outputs are auto-deleted after a short retention window. We do not inspect, share, or train on user files. Direct download links are time-limited and tied to your session.
Where can I open a PNG file?
+
PNG opens natively in every modern browser, every image viewer, and every photo-editing app. No additional software is needed.
