JPG to TIFF Optimization FAQ
Will TIFF actually be smaller than JPG?
+
Almost always when going from PNG / JPG / TIFF into WebP or AVIF: expect 25-50% smaller than JPG at the same visual quality, 60-90% smaller than PNG. Going the other way (WebP / AVIF back to TIFF = PNG / JPG) typically grows the file because you are leaving a more modern codec for an older one — useful for compatibility, not size. JPG is the JPEG standard from 1992, served under the .jpg, .jpeg and .jfif extensions alike, and after three decades it is still the format most cameras and most websites use for photographs.
Does JPG to TIFF preserve transparency / alpha?
+
Transparency survives when TIFF supports alpha (PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, TIFF, SVG). Converting to JPG flattens the alpha channel onto white — if you need transparency on the modern web target WebP or AVIF instead of TIFF.
Will the TIFF version look identical to the JPG on a Retina display?
+
At quality 80+ on WebP / AVIF the difference is invisible to anyone but a trained eye even at 3x device pixel ratio. Photos compress slightly more visibly than line art; if your JPG is screenshots or UI mockups, push quality to 90 or use a lossless TIFF.
Will EXIF camera metadata survive JPG to TIFF?
+
Usually not. In most conversions, camera EXIF fields such as the camera model and GPS position are not carried into the TIFF. There is no setting on this page to keep or remove metadata, so check the result with a metadata viewer if it matters.
Can I batch convert a folder of JPG files to TIFF?
+
Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.
Are my JPG files private during TIFF conversion?
+
Yes. Uploaded JPG files are processed on our own conversion servers, no person reviews them, and they are never shared. The upload and the converted TIFF are both deleted automatically about 24 hours after the conversion, which leaves time to download the result. See /privacy/ for the full policy.
How do I serve the TIFF with a JPG fallback on my site?
+
Use a `<picture>` element: `<picture><source srcset="image.TIFF" type="image/TIFF"><img src="image.JPG" alt=""></picture>`. Browsers that understand TIFF fetch the smaller file; older browsers fall back to JPG. WebP is supported in 96%+ of installed browsers, AVIF in 90%+.
Why is my TIFF file unexpectedly bigger / smaller than I expected?
+
A JPG that is already heavily compressed (low-quality JPG) often grows when re-encoded into a lossless TIFF (PNG / TIFF). A high-bitrate lossless JPG (PNG / TIFF) often shrinks 60-90% when going to a lossy modern TIFF (WebP / AVIF). Image content matters too — photos compress very differently from line art and screenshots.
