How to Convert HEIF to TIFF

HEIF is well suited for everyday photo storage on Android and other devices thanks to its efficient HEVC-based compression, but professional printing, scanning, and publishing workflows have long standardized on TIFF instead, valuing its support for lossless storage and high color depth. If a HEIF photo needs to go into a print or prepress pipeline, converting to TIFF gets it into the format those systems actually expect.

HEIF's higher color depth, where supported by the source device, can generally be preserved going into TIFF, which natively supports high bit depths, making this a reasonable path if retaining color precision matters more than minimizing file size.

1. Install Batchify Image Converter and Resizer Pro on your Windows PC.
2. Open the app and select Batch Mode for multiple files, or Individual Mode for a single HEIF file.
3. Drag your HEIF file or folder into the app window, enabling recursive folder scanning if needed.
4. Set the "From" format to HEIF and the "To" format to TIFF.
5. Click Convert. TIFF files are written to the output folder, fully offline.
