How do I convert a TIFF to PDF?

Drag the TIFF file onto the upload box on this page, or click the box to choose it. The image opens in the PDF editor. Click Download and choose PDF. Downloading needs a free account.

Does it work with .tif files as well as .tiff?

Yes. Files ending in .tif and .tiff both convert to PDF.

Can I make the text in a scanned TIFF searchable?

Yes, in two steps. Convert the TIFF to PDF here, then run the PDF through OCR PDF, which adds a text layer you can search and copy.

Can I combine several TIFF images into one PDF?

Not in one step. The converter takes one image at a time, so convert each image to PDF and then join the PDFs with Merge PDF.

Do I need an account to convert TIFF to PDF?

You can upload and convert without one. Downloading the PDF needs a free account, and you are asked to sign in or create one at that point. No paid plan is needed.

Which other image formats can I convert to PDF?

JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP, WebP, TIFF, HEIC and HEIF all convert in the same upload box. Camera RAW files (such as CR2, NEF and ARW), Photoshop (PSD) files and DWG drawings do not convert.

Is there a file size limit?

Yes. Each file can be up to 100 MB.
