Does converting TIFF to AVIF keep transparency?

Yes. Both TIFF and AVIF store a full alpha channel, and FileMorf preserves it exactly — anti-aliased edges, soft shadows, and semi-transparent pixels all survive the conversion.

Will converting TIFF to AVIF lose quality?

AVIF uses lossy compression, so some pixel data is discarded — that is exactly where the size savings come from. At the default quality setting the loss is invisible for most images. Keep the TIFF original as your master copy and re-export whenever you need a different balance of size and quality.

Do I need a particular browser to convert to AVIF?

Yes — the encoding runs in your browser, and in-browser AVIF encoding is currently available in Chromium-based browsers such as Chrome, Edge, Brave, and Opera. If your browser cannot encode AVIF, FileMorf reports an error instead of silently producing a different format. The finished files display in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari 16 or later.

What happens to multi-page TIFF files?

Only the first page is converted, and FileMorf flags this with a warning on the file so nothing is silently dropped. Single-page TIFFs — the vast majority of scans and photo exports — convert in full, including LZW-compressed and uncompressed variants.

Questions about TIFF and AVIF.

Check the format behavior, limitations, and follow-up options before processing a real file.

Going from uncompressed TIFF to AVIF is about the largest size reduction available in image conversion — photographic scans routinely shrink dramatically while remaining visually faithful, and the result displays natively in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari 16+. It is the right move for publishing scanned material or archival photos online. Note that AVIF encoding runs in your browser and requires a recent Chromium-based browser such as Chrome or Edge.
