Can I convert TIFF to SVG on iPhone, Android, Mac or Windows?

Yes. ConvertPixels works in Safari, Chrome, Edge and Firefox on any device, so you can convert TIFF to SVG on your phone or computer without installing an app.

Is there a free TIFF to SVG converter with no sign-up?

Yes, this one. Converting TIFF to SVG on ConvertPixels is free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily cap. Convert up to 30 files per batch, each up to 50 MB.

Will my SVG look like the original image?

Converting to vector traces your pixels into shapes. Logos, icons, signatures, line drawings and text come out clean; photos turn into a simplified, poster-style illustration. Pick black and white or up to 16 colors in the options.

Will the transparent background survive converting TIFF to SVG?

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

Can I batch convert TIFF to SVG?

Yes. Add up to 30 TIFF files and convert them in one batch. You can even choose a different output format for individual files, then download them separately or together as a ZIP.

Is it safe to upload TIFF files to ConvertPixels?

Yes. Uploads use an encrypted connection and are processed automatically - nobody views them. Your originals are deleted straight after conversion and the results within an hour, or instantly if you click "Delete from server now".

TIFF to SVG

Why convert TIFF to SVG?

The main difference: TIFF is a lossless format, while SVG is a vector format. SVG is supported almost everywhere; TIFF isn't.

Works on every device

Plenty of apps and websites can't read TIFF (Safari only). A SVG copy opens on every web browser, so you can view, upload or send the picture without hunting for special software.

Transparent areas stay transparent

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

Scales without blurring

SVG is made of shapes, not pixels, so a traced logo or icon stays razor-sharp at any size - from a tiny favicon to a large print or sign.

TIFF vs SVG: what's the difference?

Property	TIFF	SVG
Compression type	Lossless (exact pixels, larger files)	Vector (shapes, not pixels)
Transparent background	Yes	Yes
Animation	No	Yes
Where it opens	Safari only	All browsers
Used for	Printing, scanning, archiving and professional photo work	Logos, icons and illustrations that must stay sharp at any size

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

What is an SVG file?

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) describes an image as shapes, lines and curves in XML code rather than a grid of pixels. That means an SVG stays perfectly sharp at any size - from a favicon to a billboard - and is often tiny in file size.

SVG is the go-to format for logos, icons and illustrations on the web, and for cut files used by Cricut, Silhouette and laser cutters. It's not suited to photographs.

How to open an SVG file

Any web browser displays SVG files. To edit one, use Inkscape (free), Adobe Illustrator, Figma or Affinity Designer. Cricut Design Space and Silhouette Studio import SVG directly. To get a regular image, convert SVG to PNG.

Extension: .svg
Type: Vector (XML)
Transparency: Yes
Best for: Logos, icons, cut files
