Files never leave your device.How it works
How to convert TIFF to PDF
- 1Drop your TIFF images above (or click to select).
- 2Reorder them with the ↑ / ↓ buttons if needed — multi-page TIFFs keep their internal page order.
- 3Click Convert, then download your PDF.
Frequently asked questions
- Does it handle multi-page TIFF files?
- Yes. A TIFF can contain many pages (common for scans and faxes) — each internal page becomes its own page in the PDF, in order.
- Do my images get uploaded anywhere?
- No. The TIFF is decoded and converted entirely in your browser — your images never leave your device.
- Will the file get smaller?
- Usually. TIFF is often uncompressed or lightly compressed, so each page is re-saved as a high-quality JPEG inside the PDF, which is typically much smaller.
Scans and faxes, ready to share
TIFF is the workhorse format for scanners, fax machines, and document archives — high quality, but not something you can email and expect everyone to open. TIFF to PDF decodes each image (and every page inside a multi-page TIFF) and assembles them into a single, universally readable PDF, entirely in your browser.
Multi-page aware
Because a single TIFF often holds an entire scanned document across many internal pages, this tool expands each one into its own PDF page automatically. Add multiple TIFF files too, and arrange them with the up/down controls — the list order sets where each file's pages land.
Notes and limits
Every page is re-encoded as a high-quality JPEG inside the PDF, so transparency becomes white and the result is far smaller than the source TIFF with no visible loss. Decoding runs locally, so even large scans never leave your device. For the smallest possible file, run the result through Compress.
Why TIFF is the scanning standard
TIFF supports several internal compression schemes — including the CCITT Group 4 encoding fax machines have used for decades — and can store many pages inside a single file, which is exactly what a document scanner or fax-to-PDF gateway needs. That flexibility is also why TIFFs vary so much in size: a fax-compressed black-and-white scan is tiny, while an uncompressed color scan from a flatbed can be enormous.
Where TIFF still turns up
Medical imaging, legal discovery, and institutional archives lean on TIFF because it's a long-established, well-documented format for lossless scanning. When one of those multi-page scans needs to go somewhere a PDF is expected — a court filing, an email attachment, a records system — this tool expands every internal page automatically rather than making you split the TIFF first. If the scan is text you'll need to search later, run it through OCR after converting; if the resulting PDF is larger than you'd like, follow up with Compress PDF.
