How to Convert TIFF to JPG With Adobe Photoshop
Adobe Photoshop is used to create and edit images in various file formats, including Tagged Image File Format (TIFF). You can save a TIFF file in Photoshop by optimizing it as a Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPG) file. Unfortunately, JPG files lose their quality when they are compressed, unlike TIFF files, which do not. Photographs are often saved as JPG, PNG and TIFF files because of their high color depth. TIFFs are larger than JPG files and are used primarily for printing instead of for the web.
