Why convert TIFF to AVIF?
- Converting TIFF to AVIF can make a photo or graphic work in software that does not accept the source format.
- The output can be optimized for a different balance of file size, transparency, and visual fidelity.
- AVIF may be the better handoff format for a design tool or publishing workflow.
- The converted copy can be tested in the destination app before the source archive is changed.
Will quality change?
The destination uses lossy image compression, so repeated conversions can add artifacts. Start from the best source available and review the result at its final size. Keep the source if you may need to adjust the conversion later.
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.
- TIFF features without a direct AVIF equivalent may not survive the conversion.
- Review the converted file in the destination application before deleting the source.
- Batch results should be spot-checked before publication or delivery.
Platform compatibility
The output is a AVIF 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
- Do not convert when the original TIFF must remain the only editable or archival copy.
- Skip the conversion when the destination already accepts TIFF and no compatibility problem exists.
- For a one-off preview, a local viewer may be faster than creating a new delivery file.
