Convert TIFF to PNG
TIFF is a high quality format used in printing, scanning and professional photography. PNG is the practical destination when TIFF is the thing standing in the way, because PNG is built for logos, screenshots and graphics with transparency and almost every program opens it. The conversion runs entirely in your browser: there is no upload, no file size limit and no watermark on the result.

Why convert TIFF to PNG?
TIFF is the standard in print production, scanning and professional photography because it preserves full quality and supports multiple pages and high bit depths. Browsers cannot display TIFF, so converting is the quickest way to share one online.
PNG stores every pixel exactly as it was saved, which makes it the safe choice whenever detail matters more than file size. It supports a full alpha channel, so logos and UI elements keep clean, soft edges on any background. The tradeoff is that photos saved as PNG can get large.

What changes when you convert TIFF to PNG
| What happens | |
|---|---|
| Image quality | Identical. Both formats are lossless, so every pixel colour survives the trip exactly. |
| Transparency | Kept. PNG stores an alpha channel, so cut-out backgrounds and soft edges survive. |
| EXIF and GPS | Removed. The conversion goes through a pixel buffer, so camera data and location are not carried into the PNG file. |
| Colour profile | Not carried across. The image is handled in sRGB, which is right for the web and wrong for colour-managed print work. |
| Animation | Not applicable. TIFF files here are single images. |
| File size | Varies with the content of the image. No figure is quoted here, because none has been measured on a documented test set. |
