About TIFF Format

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a versatile raster image format widely used in professional photography, publishing, and archival. TIFF files can contain multiple pages, layers, and support various color depths including CMYK.

Our converter handles TIFF's advanced features including multi-page documents (selecting the first page by default), transparency alpha channels, and high bit-depth images to create crisp, professional icons.

Pro tip: For best results with multi-page TIFFs, ensure your desired image is on the first page, or select "Use first page only" in the options.
