TIF File

File extension	.TIF
Category	Image File
Description	TIF (or TIFF) is a versatile raster image format that supports lossless compression. Widely used in scanning, printing, and professional image processing.
Associated programs	Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, IrfanView, XnView
Developed by	Aldus Corporation, now Adobe
MIME type	image/tiff
Useful links	More detailed information on TIF files
Conversion type	TIF to PNG

PNG File

File extension	.PNG
Category	Image File
Description	PNG images provide lossless compression, that is why the quality of the picture is nice, but the size of the file is huge. Because of it this file format is used by photographers. PNG may have several layers of transparency and even include short text descriptions which help search engines to examine the file. Although PNG was developed to replace GIF and partly other formats, it doesn’t support animation since it can’t contain several images like GIF.

TIF to PNG Converter — Frequently Asked Questions ▼

How do I convert a TIF file to PNG online?

Upload your .tif or .tiff file to the CoolUtils converter. The converter decodes every TIFF page and writes a lossless PNG file. For multi-page TIFFs, each page is output as a separate numbered PNG. Download the results when done. No software installation, no account required.

What is the difference between TIFF and PNG?

Both are lossless raster formats, but they have different strengths. TIFF supports multi-page documents, CMYK color, 16-bit depth, and proprietary camera tags (EXIF, IPTC, XMP), making it the standard for prepress and professional scanning. PNG is a single-page, web-native format with excellent compression for images with flat areas and transparency support (alpha channel). TIFF files are typically much larger than equivalent PNGs.

Does converting TIF to PNG lose any image quality?

No. Both TIFF and PNG use lossless compression. The pixel data is preserved exactly. Converting between them is a safe, reversible operation. The only exception is 16-bit TIFF converted to 8-bit PNG — if the converter reduces color depth, shadow gradients may lose subtle tonal information.

Does the converter support multi-page TIFF to PNG?

Yes. Each page of a multi-page TIFF becomes a separate PNG file, numbered sequentially. This is the standard behavior because PNG does not support multiple pages in a single file.

What are common reasons to convert TIFF to PNG?

Web publishing: browsers support PNG natively but not TIFF; converting scanned artwork or diagrams to PNG makes them embeddable in HTML. Design handoff: many web-design tools (Figma, Sketch, Webflow) import PNG but not TIFF. CMS upload: content management systems restrict uploads to web-safe formats. Print-to-web migration: prepress TIFF assets need conversion when repurposing for digital channels.

Can I convert CMYK TIFF to PNG?

Yes, with automatic color-space conversion. The converter transforms CMYK values to RGB during the PNG output. This is lossless in terms of pixel count but involves a color-space conversion that may slightly shift warm or saturated colors, as RGB and CMYK have different gamuts.

What is the maximum file size for TIF to PNG conversion?

The online converter supports files up to 50 MB. A 300 DPI A4 TIFF scanned document is typically 3–10 MB; high-resolution prepress TIFF files can be much larger. For files exceeding the limit, use the desktop Total Image Converter.

Convert TIF to PNG — Lossless TIFF to Web-Compatible PNG

TIFF is the professional standard for scanned documents, prepress artwork, and archival photography — but browsers, CMSs, and design tools don't accept TIFF. PNG is a lossless, web-native format that opens everywhere. Converting TIFF to PNG preserves every pixel without any quality loss while producing a file that works in any browser, image editor, and upload form.

TIFF vs PNG — Both Lossless, Different Purposes

TIFF and PNG are both lossless raster formats, but they were designed for different environments:

TIFF was designed for desktop publishing and printing. It supports multi-page documents, CMYK color, 16-bit depth, transparency, proprietary camera EXIF tags, and dozens of compression schemes. File sizes are large; browser support is absent.
PNG was designed for the web. It supports RGB and RGBA (with alpha channel), up to 16-bit depth, and deflate compression. Files are smaller than TIFF. Every browser, OS image viewer, and online platform natively supports PNG.

Converting TIFF to PNG is appropriate when you need lossless quality but also web or CMS compatibility.

Common Conversion Scenarios

Web publishing: Scanned artwork, diagrams, or maps stored as TIFF need to be PNG to embed in HTML pages.
Design handoff: Figma, Sketch, and Webflow accept PNG imports; TIFF is not supported.
CMS / WordPress uploads: WordPress and most CMS platforms reject TIFF but accept PNG up to the configured size limit.
GitHub / documentation: README files, wikis, and documentation sites render PNG inline; TIFF requires a separate download.
E-commerce product images: Shopify, WooCommerce, and Magento accept PNG/JPEG; TIFF is rejected.

TIFF vs PNG — Technical Comparison

Property	TIFF	PNG
Compression	LZW, ZIP, CCITT G4, JPEG, uncompressed	Deflate (always lossless)
Lossless	Yes (most schemes)	Yes (always)
Alpha channel (transparency)	Yes	Yes
Multi-page support	Yes	No (one image per file)
CMYK support	Yes	No (RGB/grayscale only)
Browser support	None	Universal
Typical file size (A4 scan, 300 DPI)	3–10 MB	1–5 MB

Multi-Page TIFF to PNG

PNG does not support multiple pages, so each page of a multi-page TIFF is output as a separate PNG file with sequential numbering (page_001.png, page_002.png, etc.). For multi-page output as a single file, convert to PDF instead.

CMYK TIFF to PNG Color Conversion

TIFF supports CMYK color used in professional print workflows, but PNG supports only RGB. When converting a CMYK TIFF to PNG, the converter performs a CMYK-to-RGB color space conversion. This may slightly shift highly saturated inks (cyan, magenta) because the RGB and CMYK gamuts do not overlap perfectly. For color-critical print-to-web repurposing, review the output visually.
