MSG TO TIFF

Convert MSG to TIFF — for fax and compliance archives

Multi-page TIFF needs a real image encoder. Here is what works today, and what we recommend instead.

There is no database and no upload folder behind this page, so there is nothing to delete later and nothing that can leak.

No account, no email address, no software install. Open the page, drop a file, take the result and close the tab.

Private by design

Message bodies, headers and attachments stay yours. Nothing is read, logged, shared or repurposed by us at any point.

How the conversion works

1

Drop your .msg file

One file or a batch of them — everything is read directly in your browser, nothing is sent to a server.

2

Pick a destination format

Choose from EML, PDF, TXT and more. Each conversion keeps the header, body and attachments intact.

3

Download instantly

Your converted file is ready in seconds — no email, no account, no waiting in a queue.

What is a MSG file?

MSG is the file format Microsoft Outlook uses to save a single email, contact, or calendar item. It stores the header (sender, recipient, subject, timestamp), the message body, and any original attachments in one file — which is why it can typically only be opened natively in Outlook.

What is a TIFF file?

TIFF is a lossless raster format that can hold many pages in one file, which is why fax gateways, scanning workflows and long-term compliance archives standardised on it. Producing a genuine multi-page, CCITT-compressed TIFF requires an encoder no browser ships with, so client-side output would be a single-page file dressed up with the wrong extension. If your archive accepts it, export the message as PDF (multi-page, searchable) or JPG (single flat image) instead — both are generated locally here.

// Frequently asked

Questions people ask before converting

Browsers have no multi-page TIFF encoder, and faking one by renaming a JPG would break the archive systems that ask for TIFF in the first place.

PDF for multi-page, searchable archives — most compliance systems now prefer PDF/A. JPG when you just need one flat image.

Export to PDF here, then convert PDF to TIFF with a desktop tool such as ImageMagick or your document management system's ingest pipeline.

Yes, TIFF is lossless while JPG is compressed. For rendered email text, the visible difference is small at the resolution we render.
