Why convert TIFF to AVIF?

TIFF is the format scanners and print shops love, but it's heavy and browsers won't open it at all. Converting to AVIF — the most efficient mainstream image format — shrinks it dramatically while keeping excellent quality, ideal when a scan or design file needs to go on a website. Multi-page TIFFs use only the first page; for every page, use TIFF to JPG or PNG instead. It all runs in your browser, with nothing uploaded.

TIFF vs AVIF at a glance

TIFF is the print and scanning workhorse — lossless and high quality, but heavy and not supported by browsers or the web. AVIF is the newest mainstream image format — outstanding compression, but support outside browsers is still patchy.

TIFF to AVIF — frequently asked questions

Is this TIFF to AVIF converter really free?

Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermarks and no daily limits.

Are my TIFF files uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion happens entirely on your device using your browser's built-in image engine. Your TIFF files never leave your computer or phone — which is also why the conversion is nearly instant.

Will I lose quality converting to AVIF?

AVIF uses lossy compression, so the image is re-encoded at high quality (92%). For photos the difference is practically invisible; for text-heavy graphics or logos, a lossless format like PNG preserves sharp edges better.

What happens with a multi-page TIFF?

Only the first page is converted to AVIF. To get every page as separate images, use the TIFF to JPG or TIFF to PNG converter, which returns a zip of all pages.

Will the file get much smaller?

Usually yes — TIFF is often uncompressed or lightly compressed, so an AVIF can be many times smaller while looking practically identical.
