FAQ

What is the benefit of converting TIFF to WebP?

WebP offers superior compression compared to TIFF, resulting in significantly smaller file sizes while maintaining high visual quality for web use.

Does this tool support transparency?

Yes, the WebP format supports transparency, and this tool preserves it during the conversion process.

What does the compression method setting do?

It controls the trade-off between speed and file size; higher values (up to 6) result in better compression but take longer to process.

Can I keep my EXIF data?

Yes, by checking the 'Keep Metadata' option, you can preserve original EXIF, IPTC, and XMP data in the output file.

Is there a limit to the file size I can upload?

You can upload TIFF files up to 100MB in size.
