Frequently Asked Questions

Is converting TIFF to TXT free?
Yes. This TIFF → TXT 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 TXT?
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 → TXT 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 TXT 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 TXT lose quality?
No. TXT is a lossless format (or used in a lossless mode here), so the original data from your TIFF file is preserved bit-for-bit in the converted result.
Will transparent areas of my TIFF file be kept in TXT?
No — TXT does not support transparency. Transparent areas of your TIFF file will be flattened onto a solid background colour during conversion.
How will the file size change after converting TIFF to TXT?
Both formats use comparable compression, so the TXT output will be similar in size to your TIFF file — typically within 10–20% of each other.
