FAQ

about this task

In Adobe Acrobat, you can use the 'Export To' feature to save your PDF as a TIFF file. Make sure to select the option for a multi-page TIFF so all your PDF pages are included in one image file.

A PDF is a document format that can include text, images, and links, while a multi-page TIFF is an image file that stores all pages as pictures, often used for scanning or archiving.

Some organizations or software only accept TIFF images for records or processing, so converting your PDF to a multi-page TIFF makes it compatible with those systems.

You can choose the image quality settings during export in Adobe Acrobat. Higher resolution will give you better quality but will also make the file size larger.

Editing a TIFF is harder than editing a PDF, because TIFFs are images. You would need special image editing software to make changes to the TIFF file.
