How does PDF.to turn a EPUB ebook into a TIFF image?
+
By default PDF.to renders the cover of your EPUB to a single TIFF image. You can also render each chapter page of the EPUB to its own TIFF, capturing the formatted text as a flat picture.
Why would I convert a EPUB to a TIFF image?
+
A TIFF of a EPUB cover is perfect for a store listing, a thumbnail, or a social post — it is a plain image that displays anywhere without an e-reader. Rendering pages to TIFF also lets you preview a EPUB as pictures.
Do I get just the cover, or every page of the EPUB?
+
You choose. The default is cover-only, returning a single TIFF. Switch to full-render mode and PDF.to produces one TIFF per page of the EPUB, zipped together for download.
What resolution is the TIFF?
+
The cover renders at the native resolution embedded in the EPUB, and page renders default to 150 DPI. Raise the DPI in the options for a sharper TIFF when you plan to zoom or print.
Will the text in the TIFF be selectable?
+
No. A TIFF is a raster image, so any text from the EPUB becomes pixels and is no longer selectable or searchable. Convert the EPUB to PDF or a document if you need live text.
How does PDF.to handle the reflowable layout of a EPUB?
+
Because a EPUB has no fixed pages, PDF.to applies a standard reading layout before rendering, so each TIFF shows a clean, consistently formatted page rather than an arbitrary device view.
Does the TIFF keep illustrations from the EPUB?
+
Yes. Inline images and illustrations from the EPUB are part of the rendered page, so they appear in the TIFF exactly where they sit in the ebook.
Can the TIFF have a transparent background?
+
Page renders use a solid background by default. For target formats with an alpha channel you can request transparency so only the EPUB content shows in the TIFF.
Can I batch-convert several EPUB files to TIFF?
+
Yes. Upload multiple EPUB ebooks and each produces its own TIFF (or set of page TIFF images); all results are zipped for one download.
Does the converter handle DRM-protected EPUB files?
+
No. PDF.to only renders unprotected EPUB files to TIFF; it does not remove DRM.
Is the EPUB to TIFF conversion free?
+
Yes, within the free size limit. PRO unlocks larger EPUB uploads, higher-DPI output, and parallel rendering.
Does PDF.to keep my EPUB after conversion?
+
No. Your EPUB and the resulting TIFF images are encrypted in transit and deleted automatically a short time after download.
