Why convert GIF to TIFF?

Converting GIF to TIFF lets you take advantage of TIFF's industry standard for print production and prepress workflows. GIF files (Graphics Interchange Format) can be converted to TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) for better compatibility, smaller file sizes, or access to features that GIF does not support.

GIF vs TIFF: technical comparison

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format, introduced in 1987) uses LZW (lossless within palette) compression. TIFF (Tagged Image File Format, introduced in 1986) uses LZW, ZIP, JPEG, PackBits, CCITT, or None compression. GIF supports animation, but TIFF does not. Only the first frame will be preserved during conversion. GIF browser support: Universal. TIFF browser support: None.

What happens to quality?

The quality impact depends on the specific settings used during conversion. TIFF preserves full quality with lossless compression.

File size impact

Typical GIF file size: A 500x500 static icon: ~20-50 KB; a 3-second animation: ~1-5 MB. Typical TIFF file size: A 12MP photo (16-bit RGB): ~72 MB uncompressed; ~25-35 MB LZW.

Pro tip

For the best conversion results, always start from the highest quality source file available. Converting from a previously compressed file compounds any existing compression artifacts. When in doubt, use higher quality settings — you can always re-convert at lower quality later, but you cannot recover quality that has been lost.
