How to convert BMP to TIFF
- Add your .BMP file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .TIFF in a few seconds.
- Download your new .TIFF file.
What to expect
- No quality loss: both BMP and TIFF store pixel data losslessly, so the converted file is pixel-perfect.
- TIFF with LZW compression is often smaller than the original BMP; uncompressed TIFF is roughly the same size.
- A BMP-to-TIFF conversion does not automatically populate DPI or color-profile metadata - set those manually in the export options if your print workflow requires them.
Frequently asked questions
Does converting BMP to TIFF lose quality?
No. Both formats are lossless, so every pixel is preserved exactly. Avoid JPEG compression inside TIFF if you need a lossless result.
Will the TIFF file be smaller than the BMP?
It depends on compression. With LZW or Deflate enabled, TIFF is often smaller; without compression the sizes are similar.
Why does my print shop want TIFF instead of BMP?
TIFF supports embedded DPI, color profiles, and CMYK color mode - metadata that print software relies on. BMP has none of these.
Can I convert many BMP files at once?
Yes. IrfanView's Batch Conversion (File > Batch Conversion/Rename) handles folders of files without scripting, and ImageMagick works from the command line.
