2Choose the axis — horizontal gives you a mirror image, vertical an upside-down reflection.
3Apply the flip, then check any text, logos or numbers in the preview, because those mirror along with everything else.
4Download the flipped TIFF file.
Vend TIFF Vanlige spørsmål
How does Flip TIFF mirror the file?
+
Concretely, the rows or columns are reversed in place and written straight back, so the result is exactly the mirror of the input with nothing else altered. You choose the axis — horizontal produces a mirror image, vertical produces an upside-down reflection — and the whole file is transformed on it.
What is the difference between flipping and rotating?
+
A flip reverses the content across an axis and produces a mirror image; a rotation turns it without reversing anything. Text is the giveaway: it reads backwards after a flip and stays readable after a rotation.
Does the source format matter when flipping?
+
It does. TIFF is the archival container: lossless LZW or DEFLATE, 16-bit-per-channel depth, CMYK, and multiple pages in a single file. That is what decides whether the mirror can be done by rewriting the file or requires decoding it first.
Anything specific to TIFF to be aware of?
+
Yes — a single TIFF can hold several pages and 16-bit-per-channel data, so a tool has to decide whether to act on page one or on all of them. Worth a moment before you flip something you cannot easily recreate.
When would I actually want to flip rather than rotate?
+
Correcting a scan or a webcam capture that came out mirrored, making a symmetrical pair from a single asset, or matching the direction a subject faces to a layout. If the content contains text, logos or numbers, check the result — those mirror too.
Can I flip several files at once?
+
Yes. The same axis is applied to every file in the batch, which is how you fix a whole folder of mirrored captures in one pass instead of one at a time.
What can I upload to Flip TIFF?
+
PNG, BMP and TIFF are the lossless raster formats this handles directly, and lossy sources (JPG, WebP, GIF) work too if you want them in the same batch. Multi-page TIFFs are detected and handled page by page.
Is there a file size limit on Flip TIFF?
+
Yes: free accounts process images up to 25 MB each; lossless sources hit that ceiling sooner than photographs do, because nothing has been thrown away yet. If you are over it, converting to PNG first is often enough on its own — a BMP is routinely ten to twenty times the size of the identical image as PNG.
Will Flip TIFF lower the quality of my TIFF images?
+
No. A lossless source round-trips bit-exactly, so unless you explicitly ask for a lossy output format the pixels that come back are the pixels that went in. That is the whole reason to keep working in this family while you are still editing.
Can I run Flip TIFF on several TIFF images at once?
+
Yes — upload the set and they process in parallel under one set of settings. Lossless files are larger, so a big batch is bound by your upload speed rather than by the processing itself.
Does the alpha channel survive?
+
Yes. PNG and TIFF carry a full 8-bit alpha channel and it is preserved end to end. It is only flattened if you deliberately target a format that has no alpha, in which case transparent pixels are composited onto white.
Does Flip TIFF cost anything?
+
No. Flip TIFF runs free without an account and adds no watermark. Files are removed from the workers shortly after you download, and nothing about the image is retained.
