Convert TIFF to RTF
What is TIFF?
TIFF
TIFF stores pixel data in a flexible format supporting lossless compression and multiple layers. Documents store text with formatting. While you can embed TIFF images in documents, the image itself doesn't contain extractable text. Any visible text requires OCR processing.
- TIFF stores pixel-based images, ideal for photographs and graphics requiring document embedding
- Embeds easily in document formats without quality loss
- Transparency support useful for document layering
- Fixed resolution determines final document print quality
What is RTF?
RTF
RTF stores text with formatting commands as ASCII character sequences. Images are pixel arrays at specific resolutions. Converting document to image means rendering the formatted text as pixels—transforming character codes and formatting commands into a visual raster. This creates a snapshot but removes text editability, searchability, and the ability to reflow content for different display contexts.
- RTF contains structured text and layout data that renders to fixed visual output
- Text and vector elements rasterize to pixels during image conversion
- Page layout determines final image dimensions and aspect ratio

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I process multiple .tiff files together?
Yes. Batch mode supports 3 .tiff files (free) or 20 files (premium). Each .tiff converts to .rtf separately with preserved filenames and quality.
How private is server-side TIFF to RTF conversion?
Highly private. TIFF files delete immediately after RTF conversion. EU hosting, HTTPS encryption, no logging, no retention. Files never persist beyond conversion.
Can I convert large TIFF files to RTF?
Free users: TIFF files up to 100MB. Premium users: TIFF files up to 500MB. Both tiers handle typical image files easily. Upgrade for professional RTF conversion of larger TIFF assets.
What's the processing time for converting TIFF to RTF?
Most TIFF documents convert to RTF in 10-20 seconds. Simple text-based TIFF files process faster (5-10 seconds), while image files with embedded images, fonts, or formatting require additional processing time.
Do I need to install any software?
No! Everything works directly in your web browser. No downloads, no installations, no plugins required. Just upload your file and convert. Works on Windows, Mac, Linux, and mobile devices.
