TIFF to PNG

This tool cannot decode TIFF files to produce a PNG — no major browser supports TIFF in an <img> element, and this client-side app doesn't bundle a TIFF decoding library.

How to Use TIFF to PNG
  1. 1Uploading a TIFF file here shows why it can't be converted client-side
  2. 2Use a desktop tool like Preview, IrfanView, or GIMP instead (see FAQ)
Frequently Asked Questions

TIFF isn't one of the image formats any major browser can decode through the standard <img> element or Canvas API — unlike JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP, and WebP, which browsers handle natively. Converting TIFF client-side would need a dedicated decoding library, which this tool doesn't include.

Desktop tools handle this reliably: Preview (Mac, File > Export), IrfanView or Paint.NET (Windows), or GIMP (any OS) can all open TIFF files and export as PNG.

BMP and GIF are both natively decodable by every major browser's image handling, so this app's other BMP/GIF conversion tools genuinely work — TIFF simply isn't part of that browser-supported format set.
