Convert image files

JPG

JPG is the most common file extension for JPEG images and the standard format for photos. It uses lossy compression that makes files small while keeping good visual quality, and every device, browser, and app can open it. JPG does not support transparency, and each new lossy save can reduce quality slightly.

TIFF

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a flexible raster image format for high-quality images. It supports lossless compression, high bit depth, layers, and multiple pages, which makes it a standard for printing, scanning, and archiving. TIFF files are large, so they are often converted to JPG or PNG for sharing.

What happens when JPG becomes TIFF

Source format

JPG uses lossy compression and does not support transparency.

Target format

TIFF can store high-bit-depth, multi-page, lossless, or uncompressed raster data.

What changes

The JPG pixels are decoded and written using TIFF compression and color capabilities.

What is preserved
Pixel dimensions and visible composition are preserved unless resize or crop settings are selected.
What may be lost
Layers, editable vectors, camera-raw controls, animation, high bit depth, and metadata are preserved only when TIFF supports them.
Codec and quality implications
Writing TIFF without further lossy compression avoids additional codec loss, but it does not restore detail discarded by the JPG encoding.
Realistic limitations
Multi-page, layered, animated, camera-raw, or very large images may be flattened, reduced to one frame, or rejected if the decoder cannot safely read them.

Conversion steps

  1. Upload a JPG file no larger than 1 GB.
  2. Confirm that TIFF is selected as the target.
  3. Download the TIFF file and check the result before deleting your source.

Troubleshooting

The JPG file is rejected or will not open.
Confirm that the file is not empty, password-protected, or corrupt and that its real format matches the extension.
The TIFF file is larger than expected.
Choose a more efficient codec or lower quality setting when available. Lossless and uncompressed targets are often larger by design.
Transparency, color, or animation changed.
Choose a target that supports the needed feature and keep the original file; JPG cannot store transparency or animation.

Privacy and file retention

Uploads and converted files are processed automatically and irreversibly deleted within 24 hours. You can delete them sooner with the delete control. Convertr does not read, mine, sell, or manually review file contents.
