Why convert TGA to TIFF?
- The result can be reviewed without changing the file that other people still use.
- TIFF is more appropriate for the target application, device, or delivery channel than TGA.
- Compatibility is the main reason to convert when another person or service cannot open the source.
- The new format may support a feature the source container does not.
Will quality change?
This image conversion does not intentionally degrade the pixels. Check transparency, color profile, and dimensions because the output can be much larger. Check a sample before processing a large batch.
Processing and limits
- Processing
- Server-side
- Engine
- Sharp and ImageMagick
- Maximum size
- 100 MB per file on the server.
- Batch support
- Yes, multiple files can be queued; completed results can be downloaded as a ZIP.
- Quality controls
- Options can adjust output dimensions.
The file is processed on the server because the conversion requires a server-side engine or a utility operation.
- TGA features without a direct TIFF equivalent may not survive the conversion.
- Check metadata, dimensions, and compatibility after the conversion.
- Very large files can hit the 100 MB server limit before conversion starts.
Platform compatibility
The output is a TIFF file. Use an application or device that accepts that format, and test the result on the destination platform if compatibility is critical.
When not to convert
- For a one-off preview, a local viewer may be faster than creating a new delivery file.
- If TIFF support is uncertain on the destination device, test a sample before processing a large batch.
- Do not use a converted file as the legal or signed original when signatures or metadata must be preserved.
