Convert PNG to TIFF Online — Free

Runs 100% in your browser — your files never leave your device.

Moving lossless imagery into archival or print pipelines usually ends at TIFF. This converter decodes the PNG and writes a TIFF, keeping the pixels intact — both formats are lossless, so nothing is sacrificed. Runs entirely in your browser.

How it works

  1. 1

    Drop your PNG file

    Drag a PNG into the box, or click to browse. Nothing is uploaded.

  2. 2

    Convert to TIFF

    The image is decoded and written out as a TIFF locally.

  3. 3

    Save the TIFF with one click, or drop another file to convert.

About this tool

Converting PNG to TIFF

A PNG file png stores every pixel losslessly and supports full transparency, which makes it the standard for screenshots, logos, and graphics — at the cost of larger files for photographs.. TIFF tiff is the archival and print professional's format: lossless, enormous, and built for quality rather than transfer. Converting moves your image from the first set of trade-offs to the second: file size shifts with the format's compression style, transparency is lost, because TIFF cannot carry it, and pixel data is re-mapped to the target format exactly.

What to check after converting

Open the result and check the two things conversion can change: transparency and size. Your PNG source supported transparency, which TIFF cannot carry — transparent areas typically fill with white or black, so design around a solid background if that matters. Your original file stays untouched on your device either way, and the download is a brand-new file.

Frequently asked questions

Is this conversion lossless?

Yes — both PNG and TIFF store pixels losslessly, so the conversion moves your image between formats without touching a single value. The file size changes; the pixels do not.

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

No — the conversion runs entirely in your browser. The image is processed on your device and never sent to any server, which you can verify by disconnecting after the page loads.

Why convert PNG to TIFF instead of the other way around?

The direction follows what the destination needs: archival, scanning, and print workflows versus graphics, screenshots, and anything needing transparency. Converting back is always available — but each lossy hop re-encodes the image, so keep the highest-quality format as your working copy and convert toward the destination.
