SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) stores images as mathematical paths and shapes in XML, while TIFF stores professional-grade raster pixel data. Converting TIFF to SVG applies vector tracing algorithms to the decoded pixel grid, generating Bezier curves and filled regions that approximate the original image. The SVG result scales to any size without pixelation.
Professional TIFF images that contain diagrams, technical drawings, maps, and line art are good candidates for vectorization. The high resolution and lossless quality of TIFF provides the best possible source data for the tracing algorithm, producing cleaner and more accurate SVG output than lower-quality source formats.
Vector scalability enables TIFF content to work at any size. A scanned TIFF diagram at 300 DPI has a fixed resolution ceiling — enlarge it beyond that and it pixelates. An SVG version scales to any size without quality loss, from thumbnail to poster.
SVG files are editable and programmable. Once vectorized, individual elements in the TIFF-sourced graphic can be recolored, reshaped, styled with CSS, and animated with JavaScript. For web integration, SVG provides interactive capabilities that raster TIFF cannot offer.
The TIFF is decoded to a full RGB bitmap (first page for multi-page TIFFs). Vtracer's color vector tracing algorithm performs color clustering, boundary tracing into Bezier curves, and path optimization. TIFF's high resolution provides excellent source quality for the tracer — more pixels mean smoother, more accurate vector paths. Configuration includes color precision, curve fitting tolerance, speckle filtering, and segment optimization.
TIFF's high resolution and lossless quality make it the best possible source for vector tracing. Simple content (line art, diagrams, maps, technical drawings) with clean edges produces excellent SVGs. Photographic TIFFs produce poor SVGs with thousands of tiny polygon paths — these should be converted to JPEG or WebP instead. Multi-page TIFFs yield only the first page for tracing.
