Why convert BMP to TIFF?
BMP is an uncompressed raster format that stores raw pixel data, yielding large but universally readable files. TIFF is a high-quality, typically lossless format favored in printing, scanning, and professional photography.
TIFF supports an alpha channel, so you get a transparency-capable file to layer or edit — though the conversion cannot invent transparency the BMP never had. TIFF is lossless, so quality is preserved perfectly; expect the file to be larger than a compressed BMP. TIFF is the standard hand-off format for print shops and archives.
Pixohub converts BMP to TIFF entirely inside your browser using the HTML canvas API, so your images are never uploaded to a server. That makes conversion instant, completely private, and free — turn as many BMP files into TIFF as you like. Reach for TIFF whenever you need print production, scanning, and archival master files.
BMP vs TIFF: what to expect
BMP is best for maximum compatibility with legacy Windows software and raw, lossless pixels, while TIFF shines for print production, scanning, and archival master files. Keep your original BMP if you may later need the source file, and export a TIFF copy for compatibility and editing.
