About the formats
TIFF
Tagged Image File Format
TIFF is the lossless image format of printing, scanning and archiving. One file can hold many pages, and scanners and fax systems often produce it.
BMP
Windows Bitmap
BMP is the native bitmap format of Windows. It usually stores pixels with no compression at all, so it is lossless but files are very large.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting TIFF to BMP free?
Yes, completely free. No account, no daily limit, no watermark and no queue.
What happens to a transparent background?
BMP has no transparency, so transparent areas are filled with white. You can choose black or any other colour in the settings.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. It works on iPhone, iPad and Android, with no app to install.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no size limit set by us. Files of hundreds of MB convert too; very large files take longer and are handled more comfortably on a computer than on a phone.
