Convert TIF to SVG
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
- Opaque image data converts to SVG without utilizing transparency features
- No transparency support—requires opaque backgrounds
What is SVG?
SVG
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) stores graphics as XML text describing mathematical shapes, paths, curves, and styling using coordinates and equations. Resolution-independent—scales to any size without quality loss. Supports interactivity, animation (SMIL), gradients, filters, and scripting. Human-readable text format. Ideal for logos, icons, diagrams. Requires rasterization for pixel-based formats. Standardized by W3C.
- SVG uses lossless compression for perfect quality image storage
- Alpha channel transparency requires background color for TIF conversion
- Vector graphics rasterize at chosen resolution for TIF output
