TIFF to PDF

Turn single-page and multi-page TIFF files into one PDF in your browser. Every page inside a TIFF becomes a PDF page, in the original order, at full pixel resolution. Runs locally — no upload, no server, no signup.

  • Runs in your browser

    Files are never uploaded — they stay on your device.

  • No page limit

    Any document size, no per-page caps or quotas.

  • No watermarks

    Clean output with no branding added.

  • No sign-up

    Just open the tool and use it — no email, no account.

All processing happens in your browser. Your files are never uploaded.
How to verify

Key Features

Every Page Inside the File

A multi-page TIFF becomes a multi-page PDF — each image inside the file becomes its own page, in the original order. Nothing is collapsed into the first page.

No Downsampling

Pages are embedded at their native pixel dimensions. Your scan is not resampled or shrunk, so the detail that was in the TIFF is still in the PDF.

Merge Several TIFFs

Add as many TIFF files as you need and combine them into a single PDF. Drag to arrange the order — file order becomes page order.

Built for Scans and Faxes

TIFF is the format scanners and fax machines produce. Multi-page scans, fax archives, and document imaging collections are exactly what this tool is for.

Page Size You Choose

Keep the image's own proportions, or fit every page to A4 or Letter. Set orientation, margins, and background colour.

Private & Local

Conversion runs in your browser. Your files are not uploaded as part of this conversion — worth knowing when the scans are contracts or medical records.

How to Use

1

Add your TIFF files

Drag and drop or select one or more .tif or .tiff files. Each file shows how many pages it contains, so you can confirm before converting.

2

Choose the page setup

Keep the image proportions, or fit pages to A4 or Letter. Adjust orientation, margins, and background if you need to.

3

Download the PDF

Get one PDF containing every page of every TIFF you added, in the order you arranged.

TIFF to PDF Example

A four-page scanned TIFF and a one-page TIFF become a single five-page PDF, with the pages in the order the files were arranged.

TIFF
scan-001.tiff (4 pages), scan-002.tif (1 page)

One multi-page scan plus a single-page scan — the common output of a scanner or fax archive.

PDF
scan-001-converted.pdf

One 5-page PDF holding all five images at their original pixel dimensions.

How to Convert TIFF to PDF

How to Convert TIFF to PDF

TIFF is the format scanners and fax machines produce, and a single TIFF file can hold many pages inside it. This tool turns those files into one PDF: every image inside every TIFF becomes a PDF page, in order, at full pixel resolution.

Quick Answer

Add one or more .tif or .tiff files, choose a page size, and download a single PDF containing every page. Nothing is downsampled, and the files stay on your machine.

Steps

  1. Add your TIFF files. Each file shows how many pages it contains.
  2. Pick a page size — keep the image's proportions, or fit to A4 or Letter.
  3. Download the PDF.

Multi-Page TIFFs

This is the part most converters get wrong. A multi-page TIFF is one file that contains several images, and a correct conversion produces one PDF page per image. If a tool only reads the first image, a four-page scan silently becomes a one-page PDF. Here, each file reports its page count up front and every page is converted.

No Downsampling

A common complaint with TIFF to PDF conversion is that resolution is lost along the way — a 200 dpi scan coming out at 72 dpi. Pages here are embedded at their native pixel dimensions, so the detail present in your TIFF is still present in the PDF.

Why the PDF Can Be Larger Than the TIFF

Black-and-white scans are usually stored with CCITT Group 4 compression, which is remarkably efficient: a full page can be a few dozen kilobytes. PDF does not support CCITT for embedded images, so the same pixels are stored as lossless PNG. The image is unchanged, but expect a larger file. This is a property of the PDF format, not a quality setting.

Scanned Text Stays as Pixels

Placing pages into a PDF does not recognise the words on them. Text in a scan remains an image and cannot be selected or searched, because OCR is not part of this tool. If you need searchable text, that requires a separate OCR step.

What Is Supported

Single-page and multi-page TIFFs in black-and-white, grayscale, palette, and RGB form, with common compressions including CCITT Group 3 and 4, LZW, PackBits, Deflate, and JPEG. Camera raw formats (DNG, CR2, NEF) are not supported, and colour output is 8-bit RGB, so CMYK originals may shift slightly. Pages that cannot be decoded are listed in a report rather than failing the whole job.

Combining Files

Scanners often write one file per page. Add all of them and they are merged into a single PDF in the order you arrange — useful when a batch of separate scans needs to become one document.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it convert every page of a multi-page TIFF?

Yes. A multi-page TIFF stores several images inside one file, and each one becomes its own PDF page in the original order. The tool tells you how many pages each file contains before you convert, so you can check that nothing is missing.

Will the image quality be reduced?

No. Each page is embedded at its native pixel dimensions and is not resampled or downsampled, so the level of detail in your TIFF is preserved. What does change is the container: the pixels are stored as lossless PNG inside the PDF rather than using the TIFF's original compression.

Why is my PDF bigger than the TIFF file?

Scanners often store TIFF pages with CCITT Group 4 compression, which is extremely efficient for black-and-white pages — a page can be just a few dozen kilobytes. PDF does not support that compression for embedded images, so the pixels are stored as lossless PNG instead. The image is the same, but the file is larger.

Can I combine several TIFF files into one PDF?

Yes. Add as many TIFF files as you need and they are merged into a single PDF. Arrange the files in the order you want and that becomes the page order.

What about the DPI of my scan?

The full pixel dimensions are kept, so the resolution of your scan is preserved. If a TIFF records its own resolution, the tool shows it next to the file. Page size follows the image's proportions (capped so that a huge scan does not produce an absurdly large page) — choose A4 or Letter if you need an exact paper size.

Will the text in my scan become selectable?

No. This tool places your scanned pages into a PDF; it does not run OCR, so the text stays as pixels and cannot be selected or searched. Recognising the words requires OCR, which is not part of this tool.

Which TIFF files are supported?

Single-page and multi-page TIFFs in black-and-white, grayscale, palette, and RGB form, using common compressions including CCITT Group 3 and 4, LZW, PackBits, Deflate, and JPEG. Camera raw files such as DNG, CR2, and NEF are not supported, and neither are some rarer compression schemes. Pages that cannot be decoded are listed in a report instead of failing the whole conversion.

Is my file uploaded?

No. The TIFF files are read and converted in your browser, and they are not uploaded as part of this conversion.
