Why convert JPG to TIFF?

JPEG (JPG) is a lossy image format supporting millions colors. It is widely used for photos and is supported by virtually every browser and device.

Converting JPG to TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) preserves every pixel of image data with lossless compression.

TIFF supports alpha transparency, preserving any transparent areas in your image. As a lossless format, TIFF preserves all image data without any quality degradation.

This converter processes everything locally in your browser – your files never leave your device. No uploads, no servers, no registration. Convert as many JPG files as you need, completely free.

How to convert JPG to TIFF

Add your JPG file
Drag and drop your JPG image onto the converter area or click to browse your device. You can add multiple files at once for batch conversion.
Click Convert
TIFF stores pixels without compression and without a quality slider: 8 bits per channel, with an alpha channel, on a single page.
Download TIFF
The Download button next to a file saves it on its own, and Download all packs all finished files into one ZIP archive. With a single finished file no archive is made, the file downloads directly.

How much does a file weigh before and after JPG to TIFF conversion?

We ran 8 JPG files through this converter with no quality slider, because the output is lossless or fixed: two Unsplash photos at different resolutions, a product photo, a leaf macro, a real screenshot with text, a logo and an icon with a transparent background, and a text page at scanner resolution. Weights are given exactly as the tool prints them in the queue: in kilobytes and megabytes of 1,024 bytes, with the same rounding. We took the measurement ourselves on 11 September 2026 in a Chromium browser; the result depends on the image content, so your file may come out differently.

Test file	Dimensions in pixels	JPG	TIFF	Change
Landscape photo	1920 × 1280	369.8 KB	9.38 MB	26 times larger
High-resolution camera photo	4000 × 2667	1.22 MB	40.7 MB	33.3 times larger
Product photo on a light background	1200 × 1200	319.3 KB	5.49 MB	17.6 times larger
Leaf macro with fine detail	1600 × 2015	1.12 MB	12.3 MB	11 times larger
Screenshot with text	1440 × 900	89.9 KB	4.94 MB	56.3 times larger
Logo with a transparent background	1024 × 1024	36.3 KB	4.00 MB	112.8 times larger
Icon with transparency	256 × 256	8.16 KB	257.0 KB	31.5 times larger
Text page, as from a scanner	1654 × 2339	287.4 KB	14.8 MB	52.6 times larger

Every one of our image format converters carries the same table with a real measurement. The tool shows the weight of your own file before and after conversion next to every row of the queue.

When should you convert JPG to TIFF?

The file is going to a print shop or into layout
Print shops and layout programs such as Adobe InDesign, Affinity Publisher and Scribus accept TIFF without further conversion. The file from this converter is lossless, has 8 bits per channel and keeps the alpha channel, and you set the print resolution in your graphics program.
A scan or photo is going into an archive
Digital libraries and archives keep master copies in TIFF, because every save returns the same pixel values. The conversion does not restore detail lost earlier in JPG, but from now on further saves remove nothing.
The file has to open in every graphics program
TIFF is read by Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, Affinity, IrfanView and the macOS system preview, and among browsers Safari shows it. For email and the web keep the JPG, though, because TIFF weighs many times more.
The image is going onto a website
Among the major browsers only Safari displays TIFF, and the file weighs many times more than a compressed version. For a website prepare a light file with the JPG to WebP converter or the JPG to AVIF converter.

What makes this JPG to TIFF converter different?

Complete privacy
Your JPG files are processed entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to any server – your images stay on your device at all times.
Many files at once
Add any number of JPG files, each up to 100 MB. The converter processes them one by one and shows the status of each.
Size before and after
Next to every file you see the input and output size, and under the list the total for the whole queue, so you know at once how much a file grew or shrank.
Download in one archive
The Download all button packs all finished files into one ZIP archive, so you do not have to approve a dozen downloads one after another.

Frequently asked questions about JPG to TIFF conversion

Is converting JPG to TIFF free?

Yes, this JPG to TIFF converter is completely free with no limits. You can convert as many files as you need without registration or watermarks.

Does the converter upload my files to a server?

No. All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript and Canvas API. Your files never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and security.

Will I lose quality when converting JPG to TIFF?

No. TIFF from this converter stores pixels without compression, 8 bits per channel with an alpha channel, so the result is faithful to the image read from the JPG file.

Can I add transparency when converting JPG to TIFF?

JPG does not store transparency, so the resulting TIFF file is fully opaque, although the TIFF format itself supports an alpha channel.

Can I convert multiple JPG files at once?

Yes, the converter supports batch conversion. You can add multiple JPG files and convert them all to TIFF simultaneously. Use the batch download option to save all converted files at once.

What is the maximum file size?

Each file may be up to 100 MB; a larger one stops on the list with a message that it is too large. The number of files in the queue is not limited, and large images take longer because the browser decodes them fully into memory.

Does the converter work on mobile devices?

Yes, the converter works on any device with a modern web browser, including smartphones and tablets. The interface adapts to your screen size for a comfortable experience on any device.

How do I download all files at once?

The Download all button packs the finished files into one ZIP archive named jpg-tiff.zip. With a single finished file no archive is made and the file downloads directly.
