About converting JPG to TIFF
Photo labs, magazine and book publishers, stock agencies, and archive or records offices still ask for TIFF. It is the format professional print and preservation workflows trust, because it stores pixels without lossy compression and every serious image program reads it.
Your browser can open a JPG but cannot save a TIFF, so this page carries a small TIFF encoder of its own. Each photo is decoded, turned the right way up, and written out with lossless LZW compression, the same kind Photoshop uses by default. Nothing is uploaded.
One honest caveat: a TIFF made from a JPG is not sharper than the JPG was. What it does is stop any further loss. If you are going to edit, retouch, or re-save the image several times, working from the TIFF keeps every round from adding new JPG artifacts.
Frequently asked questions
Does converting JPG to TIFF improve the quality?
No. The TIFF holds exactly the pixels the JPG had, compression artifacts included. It is still worth doing when someone requires TIFF, or when you plan to edit and re-save the image, because TIFF never adds new losses.
Why is the TIFF so much bigger than the JPG?
JPG throws away detail you are unlikely to notice in order to shrink the file; lossless TIFF keeps everything. Several times the size of the JPG is normal for a photo. Zip the batch before emailing it, or use a file transfer service for large sets.
My printer asked for a CMYK TIFF. Is this one?
No, it is RGB, which is what cameras and phones produce. Most print shops convert RGB to CMYK themselves without trouble. If yours insists on receiving CMYK, open the TIFF in Photoshop, Affinity Photo, or GIMP and convert it there with the printer’s colour profile.
What DPI will the TIFF be?
It is labelled 72 DPI, but that label does not change a single pixel. Print size comes from the pixel dimensions: a 3600 × 2400 photo prints at 12 × 8 inches at 300 DPI, and print software lets you set that when you place it.
Is the camera information kept?
No. The photo is rotated the right way up, and then EXIF details such as GPS location, camera model, and date are left out of the TIFF. That is safer when you are sending images to someone else.
