| Description | The TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a widely-used file format for storing digital images, developed by Aldus Corporation (now owned by Adobe Systems). It is a versatile format that supports a wide range of color depths, resolutions, and image types, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications. TIFF files can contain multiple images, each with their own characteristics such as resolution, compression, and color depth. They can also be uncompressed or compressed using a variety of methods, such as LZW, ZIP, and JPEG compression. Additionally, TIFF files can store metadata such as keywords, descriptions, and copyright information. One of the key benefits of the TIFF format is its support for high-quality, lossless image compression. This makes it a popular choice for archiving and sharing images, especially in fields such as graphic design, printing, and photography. TIFF files can also support transparent backgrounds, making them ideal for use in web graphics and other applications where transparency is important. TIFF files can be opened and edited using a wide variety of software programs, including Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, and Microsoft Paint. They are also supported by many operating systems and web browsers. Overall, the TIFF format is a robust and versatile format for storing digital images. Its ability to support multiple images, high-quality compression, and metadata make it a popular choice for a variety of applications, especially those requiring high-quality images. |

Outlook .msg files are readable only by Outlook or specialist tools, making long-term email archiving fragile and format-dependent. TIFF preserves the rendered email as a lossless, high-quality image accepted by document management systems, legal archives, and print workflows worldwide. Converting MSG to TIFF gives you a durable, format-independent record of every email. Drop your .msg file above.
MSG is Microsoft Outlook's proprietary binary format for individual email messages. It bundles the message body, headers, sender and recipient information, formatting, and any attachments into a single binary file. MSG requires Outlook or a MAPI-compatible library to open, which creates a dependency on Microsoft software for accessing archived correspondence.
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a lossless raster image format developed by Aldus and now maintained by Adobe. It is the standard format for document scanning, print prepress, and professional archiving because it stores image data without any quality loss. TIFF is accepted by document management systems, legal discovery platforms, medical imaging software, and high-resolution print workflows that require pixel-perfect fidelity.
