Why are my scanned documents in TIFF format?

Scanners default to TIFF because it's lossless and supports multi-page documents. The downside is huge file sizes that can't be emailed or uploaded easily.

Will I lose quality converting TIFF to JPG?

JPG is lossy, but at quality 92 (our default) the difference is invisible to the human eye for almost all photos and documents. The trade-off is dramatically smaller file size.

Are my files uploaded to your server?

No. Everything runs in your browser. Especially important for sensitive scanned documents like IDs or contracts — they never leave your device.

Can I convert multi-page TIFF files?

Currently the converter handles the first page of multi-page TIFFs. For multi-page documents, consider converting the TIFF to PDF instead.

How much smaller will the JPG be?

Typically 90–95% smaller. A 100MB TIFF often becomes a 5–10MB JPG with no visible difference.

What's the max TIFF file size?

100MB per file. For larger TIFFs (e.g., 600 DPI archive scans), use a desktop tool.

Will TIFF metadata be preserved?

Basic image data is preserved. Some TIFF-specific metadata (like custom tags from professional scanners) may be stripped during conversion.
