About formats

TIFF

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a flexible, high-quality raster format widely used in professional photography, scanning, and publishing. TIFF supports lossless compression, multiple pages per file, and a very high color depth, making it the format of choice for print and archival workflows.

AVIF

AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a modern, royalty-free image format based on the AV1 video codec. It delivers dramatically better compression than JPEG and PNG — often halving file sizes — while supporting high dynamic range (HDR), 10+ bit color, and alpha transparency. AVIF is supported by Chrome, Firefox, and Android.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is converting TIFF to AVIF free?
Yes. This TIFF → AVIF converter runs entirely in your browser and is completely free — no account, no credits, no watermark.
Which devices and platforms can I use to convert TIFF to AVIF?
Any modern device with a current web browser: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iPhone and iPad. There is nothing to install — the conversion happens locally.
Are my TIFF files uploaded to a server?
No. Files never leave your device. The entire TIFF → AVIF conversion runs locally in your browser, so your data stays private.
Can I convert multiple TIFF files at once?
Yes — batch conversion is supported. Add as many TIFF files as you like and convert them to AVIF in one pass, then download the results together.
What is the maximum file size?
There is no fixed server-side limit because the conversion happens in your browser. Practical limits depend on the available memory and CPU of your device.
Will converting TIFF to AVIF reduce the quality?
Because both formats use lossy compression, the AVIF output will not bring back any quality that has already been lost in your TIFF file. Avoid repeated re-encoding to keep the best quality.
Will transparency be preserved when converting TIFF to AVIF?
Yes. Both TIFF and AVIF support alpha-channel transparency, so transparent areas of your file are kept unchanged in the AVIF output.
How will the file size change after converting TIFF to AVIF?
Both formats use comparable compression, so the AVIF output will be similar in size to your TIFF file — typically within 10–20% of each other.
