How to Convert TIFF to JPG (Shrink Large Scans and Photos)

TIFF files are enormous — a single scan can be 50MB. Converting to JPG shrinks it to a fraction of the size while keeping it perfectly readable. Upload to MegaConvert.io and select JPG — done in seconds, free.

The Problem

You scanned documents or received high-quality images in TIFF format. They're too large to email, browsers can't display them, and they eat up storage. TIFF is great for archival quality but impractical for everyday sharing.

Why Convert?

  • File size — TIFF is 10-100MB per image. JPG is 10-20x smaller.
  • Sharing — you can't email a 50MB TIFF.
  • Web — browsers don't display TIFF. JPG loads instantly.
  • Storage — save massive disk space.

How to Convert Online

  1. Go to megaconvert.io/tiff-to-jpg.
  2. Drag and drop your .tiff file.
  3. Download your .jpg.

No account. No watermarks. Files auto-delete after 1 hour.
