# TIFF to PDF
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Convert TIFF files to PDF, including multi-page TIFFs. Each page (or "IFD") in a TIFF file becomes a separate page in the output PDF. This is especially useful for scanned documents, faxes, and medical images that are commonly stored as multi-page TIFFs.
|

## Supported Formats

|
|

| TIFF | `.tiff`, `.tif` |
|

|
|
|

|
|
## How It Works
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Click the upload area or drag and drop your TIFF files.
|
||
|
|
2. Review the file list and manage it as needed.
|
||
|
|
3. Click **Convert to PDF**. The result downloads as `from_tiff.pdf`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The tool decodes each TIFF file using a JavaScript TIFF decoder, extracting every page's raw RGBA pixel data. Each page is rendered onto a canvas, exported as PNG, and embedded in the PDF. Page dimensions match the original TIFF pages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Options
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This tool does not expose additional quality settings. Images are embedded at their native resolution.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Use Cases
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Converting multi-page fax documents (TIFF-F) to a more portable PDF format
|
||
|
|
- Turning scanned document archives stored as TIFF into searchable PDFs (combine with the OCR tool afterward)
|
||
|
|
- Processing medical imaging files (pathology slides, radiology exports) that use TIFF
|
||
|
|
- Converting GIS or satellite imagery TIFF files into shareable documents
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Tips
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Multi-page TIFFs are fully supported. A 10-page TIFF will produce a 10-page PDF. You do not need to split the TIFF first.
|
||
|
|
- Very large TIFF files (hundreds of megabytes) may take longer to process since the entire file must be decoded in browser memory.
|
||
|
|
- If you need OCR on the resulting PDF, run it through the [OCR PDF](./ocr-pdf) tool after conversion.
