Why Convert JPG to TIFF?
People convert JPEG to TIFF to switch from lossy JPEG to lossless TIFF to preserve full image quality, and to gain transparency support that JPEG lacks.
Lossless TIFF is the right choice whenever you plan to edit the image further or need pixel-perfect quality for UI assets, icons, or print. Unlike JPG, saving TIFF multiple times introduces no additional quality loss.
