Convert your TIF file to GIF

to

Convert image files with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a TIF (Tag Image File Format) file and, from this, create a new image saved in the GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) format that you can then download and edit within image file editors or use for high-definition printing applications. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple TIF image files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.

Along with converting TIF image files to GIF, our tool allows you to also adjust the image with some simple effects, such as applying a grayscale filter to the image. These additional options are available within the Options tab. Along with grayscale, you can also mirror or flip the image if needed. For single TIF file uploads, you will also see options to resize and rotate your image.

Description

The TIF file extension is a raster graphics file format originally created in 1986, making it one of the older image file formats available. The format was created by Aldus Corporation (now Adobe) for use in desktop publishing software and is still a popular format that is still in use today.

The format has evolved over time from its original use in DTP applications, fax machine software, optical character recognition software, and more. TIF files are binary and can contain one or more images arranged in a rectangular data format within the file.

Description

GIF files have been around since the mid-to-late 1980's and were introduced by CompuServe as a way to compress color images into small file sizes suitable for downloading, at which time most download speeds were limited. The format allows varying-size color palettes of up to 256 colors in total to be defined from a palette of 16 million colors.

Later on, the ability to add animations to the GIF file format was added. GIF files became a popular image file format for the early internet due to their small size, large color palette, and animation capabilities, and they are still popular today.
