TIFF vs BMP: what changes when you convert
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) was introduced in 1986 by Aldus (now Adobe) and is best known for print production, scanning, and archival masters. BMP (Bitmap Image File), created by Microsoft, is the better choice when you need legacy windows applications.
Why convert? BMP files are usually larger than TIFF, but you gain legacy windows applications. TIFF files are huge and browsers refuse to show them, so they need conversion for any web use. Converting to BMP solves that instantly. note that TIFF transparency is not supported in BMP — transparent areas are filled with a white background.
Upload one file or a whole batch — conversion happens over a secure HTTPS connection and finished files are automatically deleted from our servers within minutes. BMP stores raw uncompressed pixels — files are enormous compared with any modern format.
