Frequently Asked Questions
Will the transparency in my PNG be preserved in TIFF?
Yes, TIFF fully supports transparency, so any transparent areas in your PNG will be preserved in the converted TIFF file. This makes it an excellent format for professional design workflows where transparency is needed.
Why are TIFF files larger than PNG files?
TIFF files are typically larger because they can store additional information like layers, alpha channels, and color profiles. They're also designed for maximum quality rather than compression efficiency. While both formats use lossless compression, TIFF's structure is optimized for versatility and quality rather than file size.
Can I convert multiple PNGs to a multi-page TIFF?
Yes, our converter allows you to combine multiple PNG files into a single multi-page TIFF document. Simply upload all the PNG files you want to include and select the "Combine into multi-page TIFF" option before converting.
What color profile will be used in the TIFF file?
By default, we preserve the color profile from your PNG file. If no color profile is present, we'll use sRGB, which is standard for digital images. For professional printing, you can select the CMYK option before converting, which isn't available in the PNG format.
Is there a file size limit for conversion?
Yes, you can upload files up to 100MB each. If you have larger files, you might need to resize them first. Note that the resulting TIFF files will likely be larger than the original PNGs due to the additional features and structure of the TIFF format.
