This conversion needs a HEIF/HEVC codec that is not available in this browser engine yet.
TIFF can contain multiple image representations with different roles. These are not automatically a timed animation. Selecting an image, preserving a collection or creating several outputs needs explicit engine support; neither a first-image choice nor an all-images export is implemented.
The source can carry HDR information and HEIF has HDR-capable variants. Working radiometric values and display-referred HDR are different representations. Range, primaries, transfer function and signalling must be mapped explicitly; the future engine may instead produce SDR. HDR preservation is not promised by format support.
HEIF defines the container. Compression may be lossy, lossless or uncompressed depending on its codec binding; one global quality or bit-depth value would be misleading. HEIF permits different encoding modes or container representations. Its format name alone does not promise lossless output, a quality setting or a size reduction. The future engine must choose a supported codec and sample representation; inspect the target’s compression notes below.

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

High Efficiency Image File Format
An image container for individual pictures, collections and sequences. The codec inside determines compression.

Source and target sample models can differ in precision, channel layout, colour space and transfer function. Lossless compression only preserves the samples actually encoded; a precision reduction or colour conversion can already change them. The future engine defines numeric mapping, orientation and colour conversion; canonical depth facts are listed below where available.
TIFF: TIFF tags, Exif, ICC → HEIF: Exif, XMP, ICC, NCLX. Which fields are copied, rewritten or omitted will depend on the future engine; retention is not implemented yet.
