TIFF vs PNG: Format Comparison
Key differences between the two formats
When to Convert
Common scenarios where this conversion is useful
Making scans available for web use
High-quality scans saved as TIFF need to become web-friendly. PNG preserves the lossless quality while being displayable in every browser and image viewer.
Opening TIFFs in basic image editors
Many consumer-level image editors and viewers don't support TIFF. Converting to PNG lets you edit and view the image in any tool from Paint to Preview.
Preserving quality for graphic design
When moving TIFF assets into Figma, Canva, or web-based design tools that don't accept TIFF, PNG is the best alternative for lossless quality.
Converting photographic archives
TIFF archives from film scanning or digital cameras can be converted to PNG for more accessible viewing while maintaining lossless quality.

Usually yes. Uncompressed TIFFs are significantly larger. LZW-compressed TIFFs will be similar in size to PNG. Either way, PNG offers far better compatibility.
Yes. Alpha channel transparency from TIFF is preserved as PNG alpha transparency. Both formats support full 8-bit alpha channels.
The converter processes the first page of multi-page TIFFs. Individual pages must be converted separately.
The visual appearance is preserved, but embedded ICC color profiles from the TIFF may not transfer during browser-based conversion. For color-critical work, use desktop software.
Choose PNG for lossless quality, transparency, and pixel-perfect reproduction. Choose JPG when you want smaller files and don't need transparency. PNG is closer to TIFF's quality philosophy.
Yes. TIFF is the standard output format for many document and photo scanners. The converter handles standard TIFF variants from all major scanner brands.
