TIFF to PDF

Upload one or more TIFF images to combine them into a single downloadable PDF.

Note: for multi-page TIFF files, only the first page of each file is converted.

How to use the TIFF to PDF

  1. Click the upload area (or drag and drop) to add one or more TIFF images.
  2. Images are added to the PDF in the order they appear in the list, one per page.
  3. Click "Convert & Download PDF."
  4. The combined PDF downloads automatically to your device.

About the TIFF to PDF

TIFF is a format commonly produced by document scanners and fax software, valued for lossless image quality, but it isn't natively displayed by web browsers the way JPG or PNG images are — most browsers simply can't open a .tiff file directly. That makes TIFF files awkward to share or preview compared to more web-friendly formats, and converting them to PDF is usually the easiest way to make a scanned TIFF document viewable and shareable everywhere.

This tool uses a dedicated JavaScript TIFF-decoding library to read the pixel data out of your uploaded TIFF files directly in your browser, then places each decoded image onto its own page in a new PDF using a PDF-building library, also running locally. The result is a standard PDF that opens correctly in any PDF viewer, without requiring the recipient to have any special TIFF-compatible software.

It's especially useful for anyone dealing with scanned documents from an office scanner or fax machine (both commonly output TIFF), archivists converting older TIFF-based scans into a more universally viewable format, and professionals in fields like law, healthcare, or government where TIFF remains a common document scanning standard. Because processing happens entirely in your browser, your files are never uploaded to a server.

Frequently asked questions

Why can't I just open a TIFF file in my browser like a JPG?+
Most web browsers don't include built-in support for decoding the TIFF format, unlike JPG, PNG, or GIF, so TIFF files typically need to be converted before they can be viewed or shared easily online.
Does this support multi-page TIFF files?+
Only the first page of a multi-page TIFF is converted. For a document with multiple pages stored as separate TIFF files, upload all of them and they'll be combined into a multi-page PDF.
Does converting to PDF reduce image quality?+
The image is decoded from the TIFF's pixel data and re-embedded at the same resolution, so there's no quality loss introduced by this conversion step itself.
Are my TIFF files uploaded anywhere?+
No, decoding and PDF creation both happen locally in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded to a server.
