TIFF is an image format created in 1986 by Aldus and later maintained by Adobe. It's commonly used for print publishing, professional photography, archival preservation.

Will converting TIFF to JPG reduce quality?

Slightly. JPG uses lossy compression, so some fine detail is discarded. At normal viewing sizes, the difference is imperceptible.

How much smaller will the JPG file be?

Typically 60-80% smaller than the original TIFF, depending on image content and quality settings.

What happens to transparency in my TIFF file?

JPG doesn't support transparency. Transparent areas will become white by default.

Can I convert JPG back to TIFF later?

Yes, but the JPG compression is permanent. Always keep the original TIFF file if quality matters.
