Convert TIFF to GIF

Transparency survives when going to PNG, WebP, TIFF, GIF, ICO, PSD or SVG. Converting to JPG / JPEG / JFIF flattens the alpha channel against a white background — if you need transparency, target a transparency-aware format instead of GIF.

Embedded ICC color profiles are read from the source TIFF and re-attached to the GIF output where the format supports it (JPG, PNG, TIFF, WebP, PSD). Formats without profile support (GIF, BMP, ICO, SVG) fall back to sRGB.

Camera EXIF (ISO, shutter, lens, GPS) is preserved by default during TIFF → GIF conversion when both formats support metadata (JPG, TIFF, WebP, PSD). Use the privacy option to strip metadata before download if you want to share images without geolocation.

Yes — drag multiple TIFF files into the upload zone and we queue them in parallel. Free users get 100MB per file; Premium has no per-file cap and runs more parallel workers, so a 200-image batch typically finishes in under two minutes.

For straightforward format conversion we run the same libpng / libjpeg-turbo / libwebp / ImageMagick pipelines a desktop editor uses, with the same output quality. The difference is that desktop tools open one file at a time; jpg.to accepts a batch and runs them in parallel.

Default behaviour is 1:1 — your GIF output has the same pixel dimensions as the source TIFF. ICO output is the exception (it produces a multi-resolution stack: 16/32/48/64/128/256). If you need to resize as part of the conversion, use /resize/ after conversion.

For JPG / JPEG / WebP, quality 75-85 typically gets the file 60-80% smaller than the source TIFF with no visible difference at normal viewing distance. For lossless targets (PNG, TIFF, BMP), expect smaller savings — usually 5-30% via better deflate / LZW compression.

Yes — uploaded TIFF files are processed in isolated workers and deleted within minutes. We never read, store, or share the pixel data. The full privacy policy and retention window are documented at /privacy/.

Yes for free up to 100MB. Premium handles larger inputs (300MB+) and exotic per-pixel depths (16-bit PNG, 32-bit float TIFF, multi-layer PSD). The pipeline streams pixel rows, so memory use scales with the row count not the total pixel count.

Size is decided by the two compression models, not by the converter. Remember that TIFF is the archival container: lossless LZW or DEFLATE, 16-bit-per-channel depth, CMYK, and multiple pages in a single file, whereas GIF is capped at a 256-colour palette with single-bit (on/off) transparency and no partial alpha, which is why photographs band and dither in it — so a heavily-compressed TIFF usually GROWS when re-encoded into a lossless GIF, and a bulky lossless TIFF usually shrinks sharply going the other way. Image content matters too: photographs and flat line art compress very differently.

Yes. The conversion is a format change — copyright on the image content stays with you (or whoever held it on the source TIFF). We add no watermark, no metadata stamp, and claim no licence over the output.
