Convert TIF to JPEG
What is TIF?
TIF
TIF is the short extension for TIFF format—same capabilities, same quality. Supports lossless compression, layers, and high color depth. Professional format for photography, publishing, and archiving. File extension preference varies by platform.
- TIF uses lossless compression for perfect quality image storage
- Lossless source ensures maximum quality for JPEG conversion
- No transparency support—requires opaque backgrounds
What is JPEG?
JPEG
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) uses lossy DCT-based compression, optimized for photographs with millions of colors. Supports 24-bit color depth. Quality vs size tradeoff adjustable via compression level. No transparency support. EXIF metadata for camera data. Universal web and camera format. Converting between image formats preserves or re-encodes pixel data.
- JPEG uses lossy compression for efficient image storage
- Lossy compression means conversion to TIF preserves but cannot restore quality
- DCT-based compression removes high-frequency visual data
- Supports 24-bit RGB color (16.7 million colors)
- No transparency support—requires opaque backgrounds
