What happens when you convert TGA to TIFF?

Encoding mode

TIFF is not intrinsically lossless or uncompressed. Read the Compression, BitsPerSample and SampleFormat tags; decoder support varies across schemes. The output uses the implemented still-image encoder; file size depends on the pixels and format.

Sample precision & colour

Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.

Truevision TGA

Compression: LosslessTransparency: YesMetadata: Image ID, Extension area (v2)

A straightforward raster format from Truevision, with optional RLE compression and alpha for compatible texture workflows.

Tagged raster storage for scanning and image interchange. Compression, sample types and image count depend on the TIFF variant.

Is TGA → TIFF right for you?

Good choice when

  • TIFF fits your delivery use: Scans & raster interchange.
  • You need a transparency-capable destination and will check its supported variant.
  • Your receiving application supports the required TIFF variant.
  • You can validate the destination’s sample precision and colour interpretation.

Probably not when

  • You assume format-level alpha support guarantees matching transparent edges.
  • You need a guaranteed output file size or archival pixel equality. Encoder settings do not guarantee either.
  • You require identical samples without a defined colour and precision policy.

TGA to TIFF conversion details

Transparency representation
The implemented target supports alpha. Display-pixel processing can round translucent samples; archival sample equality is not promised.
Encoding mode
TIFF is not intrinsically lossless or uncompressed. Read the Compression, BitsPerSample and SampleFormat tags; decoder support varies across schemes. The output uses the implemented still-image encoder; file size depends on the pixels and format.
Sample precision & colour
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
Metadata & colour
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
Compression
TGA: Lossless → TIFF: Depends on variant TGA: TGA can be uncompressed or losslessly RLE-compressed. Attribute bits and version-2 alpha semantics matter; the fourth byte must not automatically be treated as opacity. TIFF: TIFF is not intrinsically lossless or uncompressed. Read the Compression, BitsPerSample and SampleFormat tags; decoder support varies across schemes.
Transparency
Transparency is replaced with white by default. Change the background in Advanced options.
Colour depth
TGA: Indexed / gray / RGB / RGBA → TIFF: Tagged sample types
Multiple images
TIFF: Image directories
Dimensions
Rendered image dimensions are retained within the converter limits; this tool does not offer resizing. Orientation handling depends on the source decoder.
Metadata
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.

Common questions

Which compression mode will TIFF use?

TIFF is not intrinsically lossless or uncompressed. Read the Compression, BitsPerSample and SampleFormat tags; decoder support varies across schemes. The output uses the implemented still-image encoder; file size depends on the pixels and format.

Are bit depth and colour values guaranteed to match?

Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.

Will metadata and colour profiles be retained?

Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
