PDF to TIFF

Advanced PDF processing with OCR and professional layout preservation.

100%

TIFF is the format that print shops, fax systems and archives trust: uncompressed or losslessly compressed, colour-accurate and built to survive decades of storage. This converter renders PDF pages as TIFF images at production quality, one file per page or as a multi-page TIFF.

How to use this tool

  • Upload the PDF.
  • Choose the resolution (300 DPI is the print/archive standard) and single or multi-page output.
  • Convert and download the TIFF file(s).

The format that refuses to die

TIFF has outlived dozens of trendier formats because it stores images without compromise and carries rich metadata about how they were made. Legal archives, medical imaging and pre-press workflows still specify it by name, which is why a PDF headed for any of them passes through this conversion.

Frequently asked questions

What DPI should I use for TIFF output?
300 DPI for print and archive work, 200 DPI where fax compatibility matters, and 150 DPI only for quick reference copies, since TIFF files grow quickly with resolution.
What is a multi-page TIFF?
A single TIFF file containing several page images in sequence, the classic format for scanned documents and fax transmissions. Most modern viewers can step through its pages.
Why are TIFF files so large?
They store image data uncompressed or losslessly, keeping every pixel. That fidelity is the point; for sharing by email, convert to JPG or compress the PDF instead.
