What is PDF to TIFF Conversion?

PDF to TIFF conversion transforms each page of a PDF document into a separate TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) image. TIFF is a high-quality raster image format widely used in professional printing, archiving, and digital preservation.

  • Archival Quality: Preserves document quality for long-term storage
  • Image Editing: Edit individual pages in photo editing software
  • Compatibility: Works with legacy systems that don't support PDF
  • Quality Preservation: Maintains high resolution for detailed documents
  • OCR Processing: Better results with some optical character recognition systems

Frequently Asked Questions

The TIFF images maintain the original resolution of your PDF. Our converter preserves the quality without compression loss:

  • Vector graphics remain sharp at any zoom level
  • Text is rendered at high DPI for readability
  • Images retain their original pixel dimensions
  • Typical output is 300 DPI for print quality

This tool converts all pages to TIFF. For selective conversion:

  1. First, use Split PDF to extract specific pages
  2. Then convert the smaller PDF to TIFF using this tool
  3. Or use Extract Pages to create a PDF with only the pages you need

TIFF file size depends on several factors:

  • Page dimensions (Letter, A4, etc.)
  • Image content complexity
  • Color depth (color vs. grayscale)
  • Typically 1-5MB per page for standard documents
  • High-resolution scans can be 10-50MB per page

TIFF and JPEG serve different purposes:

  • TIFF: Lossless compression, larger files, professional printing, archival
  • JPEG: Lossy compression, smaller files, web use, photos
  • Quality: TIFF preserves all detail, JPEG may have artifacts
  • Use Case: Choose TIFF for printing, JPEG for web sharing
