How to convert a PDF to a TIFF file, step-by-step.
Whether it’s to keep your files in order or for a specific project, you can use Adobe Acrobat online services to easily convert a PDF to a TIFF.
What is a TIFF file?
TIFF stands for Tag Image File Format. Aldus Corporation developed the TIFF in the 1980s as a standardized image format for scanned documents, and Adobe now holds the copyright.
A TIFF can preserve multiple pages and images in a single file, so it’s ideal for saving high-quality, detailed images. It’s not the smallest option for file compression, but it is lossless. A TIFF is best used for high-quality photographs and high-resolution scans. It can also be used as a container for smaller JPEGs.
