How do I convert a PNG file to TIFF?

Upload your PNG file, choose a TIFF compression mode (LZW reduces file size losslessly or uncompressed for maximum compatibility), then click Convert. Download the generated TIFF from your browser — no software installation is needed.

Why should I convert PNG to TIFF instead of keeping PNG?

PNG is optimized for web and screen graphics, but TIFF is the standard in print, publishing, and professional editing because it supports CMYK, high bit depths, ICC profiles, and lossless LZW compression. Converting gives you broad compatibility with Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, and prepress workflows while preserving archival quality.

Does converting PNG to TIFF lose quality or transparency?

No. The converter maps the PNG's RGBA pixel data and alpha channel directly into the TIFF's transparency mask, keeps the embedded ICC profile, and preserves pixel dimensions and DPI metadata. LZW compression, if selected, is fully lossless — no color, detail, or alpha information is discarded.
