Open TIFF and TIF files online - multi-page scans, faxes, 16-bit photos and GeoTIFF maps - right in your browser. Zoom to the pixel, read every tag and save any page as PNG or JPG. Converting a whole batch? TIFF to JPG and TIFF to PDF are one click away.

Shortcuts: Ctrl + O open, + / - zoom, 0 fit, 1 actual size, R rotate, Page Up / Page Down change page, Esc leaves full screen.
Multi-page TIFFs open on page one right away while the other thumbnails load in the background.
CCITT Group 3 (1D and 2D), Group 4 and RLE fax pages decode in the browser - checked pixel for pixel against libtiff.
Scientific, medical and HDR pages are shown with smart levels, and the inspector reads the original values.
Up to 6400% with a pixel grid, smooth panning, pinch zoom on phones and a rotate button for sideways scans.
TIFF, EXIF, GPS and GeoTIFF tags with plain-English values, a filter box and CSV or JSON export.
Coordinate system, pixel size and corner coordinates, plus the map position under your cursor.
Full-resolution PNG or JPG per page, all pages at once, copy to the clipboard or print the whole document.
Decoding runs in a background worker on your device. Nothing is uploaded, not even the tags.
A TIFF is a container, and each page can be stored in a different way.
The compression decides the file size and whether quality is lost - this viewer shows it in the stats line above the image.
| Compression | Lossless? | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| None | Yes | Raw scans and camera exports - big but simple |
| LZW | Yes | The default in Photoshop and most scanners |
| Deflate (ZIP) | Yes | Smaller than LZW, common for 16-bit and GIS data |
| Zstd | Yes | Modern GDAL and Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs - fast and small |
| PackBits | Yes | Old Mac software, simple graphics |
| JPEG | No | Photos and colour scans that must stay small |
| CCITT Group 3 / 4 | Yes | Black and white faxes and document archives |
Need a smaller file? Compress TIFF switches the compression for you, and TIFF Resizer lowers the pixel count. For sharing, a JPG or PNG copy opens everywhere.
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) was created in 1986 for scanners and desktop publishing.
It is still the standard for print, archives, medical and scientific imaging and mapping.
Every page is described by a list of numbered tags - width, height, bit depth, compression, colour model and where the pixel data sits. That flexibility lets one format hold a 1-bit fax, a 16-bit CMYK print file and a floating point elevation model.
Opening other image formats? Browse all file viewers, or try the HEIC Viewer for iPhone photos.
Drop the .tif or .tiff file anywhere on this page, click to browse, or paste it. The first page appears in a second or two, and the file never leaves your computer.
It works on Windows, Mac, Chromebooks, iPhone and Android, with nothing to install.
Yes. Every page gets a thumbnail under the image - click one, use the arrows, or press Page Up and Page Down.
You can save one page as PNG or JPG, save all pages at once, or print the whole document. To turn the pages into one PDF, use TIFF to PDF.
Uncompressed, LZW, Deflate (ZIP), Zstd, PackBits, JPEG (new and old style) and the fax codecs CCITT RLE, Group 3 (1D and 2D) and Group 4 - with strips or tiles, chunky or planar, and predictors.
JPEG 2000, LERC and WebP inside TIFF are not decoded in the browser yet. The viewer tells you when a page uses one of them.
Many cameras, microscopes and scanners store 10, 12 or 14-bit data inside a 16-bit file, so the values only fill part of the range. The viewer stretches those pages automatically.
Switch Levels in Options to Full range for the untouched look, or Stretch to always use the darkest and brightest pixel. The pixel inspector always shows the original values.
Yes. GeoTIFF keys, the coordinate system (EPSG code), pixel size and the corner and center coordinates are listed under Details.
For latitude and longitude rasters the pixel inspector shows the coordinates under your cursor, and there is a link to the spot on OpenStreetMap. Elevation and other float data are shown as grayscale with their real values.
Open the page and press PNG or JPG - you get the full-resolution page. All pages saves every page at once (in a ZIP when there are more than two).
For many files at once, or more output options, use TIFF to JPG or TIFF to PNG.
No. The file is read and decoded by JavaScript in your browser, in a background worker so the page stays responsive.
Nothing is sent to a server, which makes the viewer safe for scanned contracts, medical images and other private documents.
The three usual causes: the file was cut off during download or copy, it uses a rare compression such as JPEG 2000, or it is not really a TIFF (a renamed JPG, PNG or PDF).
The viewer names the exact problem and the tool that can open the file instead. Still stuck? Contact us and we will take a look.
