A TIFF file is a raster image file format created by Aldus in the 1980s as a means to store high-quality images in a flexible format. This flexibility is emphasised by its ability to store images at varying color depths, from monochrome all the way up to full 24-bit color.
As well as being able to store image data at varying color depths, TIFF files can also store images in other formats, such as CMYK. Along with image data, it is also possible to store metadata, allowing information such as color space, dimensions, and other useful information to be stored.
As the image data is stored in an uncompressed format, TIFF files can become quite large, especially when dealing with full color RGB images at higher resolutions. Although TIFF files have become less common in recent years, many image editing programs still support them.

The OBJ file format is a 3D graphics file format used to define complex 3D models, including geometry, materials, and textures. OBJ files are text files, making them human-readable and easy to modify by hand. The downside to this ease of readability is that the files can become rather large when dealing with large or complex 3D models.
As mentioned, the OBJ format stores not only 3D model geometry but also materials and textures. These materials are usually defined in a separate file with the MTL file extension and specify geometry rendering details such as diffuse and specular color, transparency, and much more.
The OBJ material file can also reference external texture files. These are usually JPEG or PNG files; however, these can be older formats, such as TGA. Where materials are used, the OBJ file will also contain material names preceding the geometry faces they should be applied to. If textures are referenced, the geometry will also contain texture coordinates (UV) for each vertex.
Our TIFF converter will convert your TIFF file to a 3D model using the Heightmap process whereby 2D pixels, based on their luminosity, are converted into 3D space to create a full 3D OBJ model ready for download for further processing in your favourite 3D editing package or for printing on a 3D printer.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your TIFF file to upload. Your TIFF file will be uploaded to our servers. When the TIFF to OBJ conversion has completed, you can download your OBJ file straight away.
We aim to process all TIFF to OBJ conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds however this can be longer for certain files, so please be patient.
We aim to provide the best conversion experience. Our tools are under constant review and development with new features being added every week.
Our tool uses a Heightmap process whereby the OBJ 3D model is created based on the luminosity of the individual pixels in you TIFF image.
Yes, to ensure our tool converts the TIFF image quickly and with a reasonable final file size, your tool will resize any image larger than 600x600 pixels.
