What JPG to TIFF conversion does

Convert a JPG, JPEG, or JFIF image to TIFF directly in your browser. TIFF is the standard for print production, scanning, publishing, and archival master copies, where lossless fidelity matters more than file size.

How to convert JPG to TIFF

1. Choose a JPG, JPEG, or JFIF file.
2. Select Convert & download.
3. Save the .tiff file from your browser downloads.

Why use this conversion

Print shops, scanning pipelines, and archival workflows often specifically require TIFF as the master format, even when the source photo started as a JPG.

Transparency and output quality

JPG has no alpha channel, so TIFF output here is fully opaque — TIFF’s own alpha support only matters for sources that already have real transparency, such as PNG. TIFF output here is lossless from this point forward, but it cannot recover detail JPEG already discarded during its own compression, and the uncompressed file will be much larger than the source JPG.

Privacy and local processing

• Processing occurs locally in the browser.
• Files are not uploaded to Looty Tools for conversion.
• Converted files remain on your device.

Limits and known issues

• Input: JPG, JPEG, or JFIF (.jfif, .jfi, .jif), up to 25.0 MB and 8,192 px per side.
• JFIF (.jfif, .jfi, .jif) is accepted alongside .jpg and .jpeg because it is a JPEG-based format.
• Metadata is not preserved in the downloaded file.

JPG to TIFF FAQ

Why convert JPG to TIFF?

TIFF is the standard for print production, scanning, publishing, and archival master copies, where lossless fidelity matters more than file size.

Does this accept JFIF files?

Yes. JFIF is a JPEG-based format, so .jfif, .jfi, and .jif files are accepted alongside .jpg and .jpeg.

Does converting to TIFF restore detail lost by JPEG compression?

No. TIFF output here is lossless from this point forward, but it cannot recover detail JPEG already discarded during its own compression.

Why is the TIFF file so much larger than the source JPG?

This tool writes uncompressed TIFF (raw RGBA pixel data), while JPG is heavily compressed. The TIFF file can be many times larger for the same image.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Conversion runs locally in your browser and does not upload your file to Looty Tools servers.
