Free TIFF to TGA converter

Why convert TIFF to TGA?

People convert TIFF to TGA because TIFF is what scanners and print shops produce, and browsers and messaging apps will not display it, while TGA is what a number of game engines and older 3D tools still expect.

How to convert TIFF to TGA

1. Choose your TIFF file. Drop it on the box above, or tap to browse. You can pick several files at once.
2. Confirm the target is .tga. It is preselected when your browser can encode it; otherwise the closest available target is chosen. Adjust quality, size or the other options if you want to.
3. Convert and download. Press Convert, then Download. Your file stays on your device the whole time.

What is a .tiff file?

TIFF is the lossless format of scanners, print workflows and archives, able to hold multiple pages and very high bit depths. Files are large, and browsers cannot display one, so a TIFF usually has to be converted before it can be shared or put on a web page.

What is a .tga file?

TGA is a simple, usually uncompressed image format that persists in game development and 3D texturing pipelines, where its straightforward alpha channel is convenient. General-purpose software often cannot open one.

What to expect from this conversion

The target format is lossless, so every pixel of the decoded image is preserved exactly. The result can be larger than the original, which is the normal trade for keeping full quality. Multi-page TIFFs are common from scanners — each page comes out as its own file.

Is it private?

Yes, by design. Every conversion happens inside your own browser using your device’s processor — there is no server that receives your TIFF file, so there is nothing for anyone to store, scan or leak. You can confirm it yourself: open your browser’s developer tools, watch the Network tab while you convert, and you will see no upload.
