About PDF to TIFF

PDF to TIFF is mostly for systems that still expect TIFF, like document management and archiving software, fax services, some print shops and older scanning workflows. Upload the PDF, choose the pages, and pick One multi-page TIFF or One TIFF per page. If your document is still a Word file, turn it into a PDF with Word to PDF first.

Resolution presets run from 72 to 600 DPI, with 150 DPI as the default, and 300 DPI is the usual choice for archives and print. For the multi-page file, More options holds the compression. LZW keeps colour pages lossless, CCITT G4 turns pages into compact black-and-white images for fax and document archives, and Uncompressed gives the largest but most widely readable files.

FAQ

PDF to TIFF: questions and answers

Should PDF to TIFF use LZW or CCITT G4?
LZW keeps colour and grey tones with no loss. CCITT G4 turns every page black and white, which suits text documents and fax systems and makes very small files, but photos lose their tones.
Can PDF to TIFF put all pages in one file?
Yes, that's the default, One multi-page TIFF. Choose One TIFF per page if the receiving system wants a file per page.
What DPI should I use to convert PDF to TIFF?
300 DPI is standard for archives and printing, 200 DPI is common for fax-quality documents, and 150 DPI keeps files smaller for use on screen. For images that are only viewed on screen, PDF to JPG gives you JPG or PNG files that open everywhere.
