Yes. Transparency is supported in both formats and is preserved exactly.

PDF to TIFF

Why convert PDF to TIFF?

The main difference: PDF is a document format, while TIFF is a lossless format.

Transparent areas stay transparent

PDF and TIFF both handle transparency, so anything see-through in the original is still see-through after conversion.

Crisp edges for editing and print

TIFF keeps sharp lines and text intact, which makes it the better choice for graphics, screenshots and anything you plan to print.

What is a PDF file?

PDF (Portable Document Format) was created by Adobe in 1993 to make documents look identical on every screen and printer. A PDF can contain text, vector graphics and images across any number of pages.

It's the standard for forms, contracts, resumes, school assignments and anything you print or submit. Turning photos and scans into a PDF bundles them into one tidy, universally readable file.

How to open a PDF file

Every web browser opens PDFs, as do Mac Preview, the Files app on iPhone and the free Adobe Acrobat Reader on Windows, Mac and Android. To get pictures out of a PDF, convert its pages to JPG or PNG.

Extension: .pdf
Contains: Text, vectors and images
Pages: One or many
Best for: Documents, forms, printing

What is a TIFF file?

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a high-quality format used in professional photography, printing, scanning and publishing. It's usually saved without lossy compression, so it keeps every detail - and produces large files.

TIFF can store layers, 16-bit color, multiple pages and transparency, which makes it a favorite of print shops and archives. For sharing online, it's far too heavy.

How to open a TIFF file

Windows Photos and Mac Preview open most TIFF files. Photoshop, Lightroom, GIMP and Affinity Photo handle advanced ones with layers or 16-bit color. Browsers generally can't display TIFF, so convert to JPG or PNG to share.

Extensions: .tif, .tiff
Compression: None or lossless (usually)
Transparency: Yes
Best for: Printing, scanning, archiving
