PNG to TIFF Converter

PNG is a lossless image format built for sharp edges, flat colors, and transparency — think logos, screenshots, and UI graphics rather than photos.

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) was created in the mid-1990s as a free, patent-unencumbered replacement for GIF, and it inherited GIF's lossless approach while adding full 24-bit color and an alpha transparency channel. Because nothing is thrown away during compression, a PNG can be re-saved indefinitely without ever degrading — a real advantage for screenshots, diagrams, and anything with text or hard edges, where JPEG's compression tends to introduce visible smudging. The cost is file size: for photographic content, a PNG is typically several times larger than an equivalent JPEG, which is why most photo libraries still default to JPEG and reserve PNG for graphics.

TIFF is a flexible, high-fidelity format favored in printing, scanning, and professional photography workflows.

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) was designed to be a container flexible enough for almost any kind of image data — multiple pages, layers, high bit depths, and either lossless compression or none at all. That flexibility is exactly why it became the standard in print production and document scanning, where color accuracy and detail matter more than file size. It's rarely seen on the web, since browsers don't render it natively and its files run large, but it remains the safe choice whenever an image needs to survive a professional print or archival pipeline untouched.
