Frequently asked questions
Is WebP or JPG better for a converted TIFF photo?
WebP gives smaller files at similar quality and keeps transparency, which makes it better for your own website. JPG is the safer choice for sharing with other people or uploading to forms.
How much smaller is the WebP than the TIFF?
Often by 90 percent or more for photographs, because uncompressed TIFF files are so large. The exact result depends on the image.
Can I convert a multi-page TIFF to WebP?
Only the first page is converted. Split the pages into separate files first if you need all of them.
Are my TIFF files uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs in your browser using WebAssembly, so your TIFF files stay on your device. There is no signup, no watermark and no cost, and you can convert a whole batch and download it as a zip.
About TIFF to WebP
Someone hands you a TIFF, perhaps from a scanner, a print studio or a photographer, and it has to go on a website. A browser cannot display it and it is far too heavy to serve, whereas WebP is displayed by every current browser and a 36 to 48 MB TIFF photo can become one or two megabytes. WebP also keeps transparency, so cutouts and logos delivered as TIFF stay see-through.

WebP can be lossy, so a little fine detail is discarded for photographs; if you need every pixel exactly, PNG is the lossless choice. Only the first page of a multi-page TIFF is used. Metadata is removed and orientation is applied first. Some older desktop programs, email tools and upload forms do not accept WebP, so convert to JPG when the file has to travel beyond a website.
TIFF is normally lossless, stored uncompressed or packed with LZW or ZIP, so files are large; WebP is either lossy or lossless, depending on how the file was saved. Both formats can store transparency, so transparent areas in the TIFF file stay transparent. For scale, a 12-megapixel photo is typically 36 to 48 MB uncompressed as TIFF and 1.5 to 3.5 MB as WebP. Compatibility: Every current browser displays it. Some older desktop software, email clients and upload forms still reject it.
