How does PDF.to convert a TIFF image into a DOCX document?

We run OCR on your TIFF, recognize the text, and place it into a DOCX you can edit. Images from the TIFF are embedded alongside the recognized text where they appeared.
How accurate is the OCR for TIFF to DOCX?
+
On clean 300-DPI scans, English OCR is typically 98%+ accurate. Hand-written, low-resolution, or skewed TIFF images yield lower accuracy and may need manual review in the resulting DOCX.
What languages does the TIFF to DOCX OCR support?
+
Pli ol 100 lingvoj, inkluzive de la angla, hispana, franca, germana, ĉina (simpligita kaj tradicia), japana, korea, araba, hebrea, rusa kaj hindia. Elektu la fontan lingvon en la opcia panelo por plej bona precizeco.
Will the DOCX preserve the original TIFF layout?
+
Paragraphs, columns, tables, and basic headings are reconstructed in the DOCX. Highly designed layouts (magazine pages, infographics) may need touch-up after conversion.
Does the converter preserve tables from the TIFF?
+
Yes — detected tables are rebuilt as native DOCX tables with rows, columns, and cell content. Complex nested or borderless tables may flatten into plain text.
Will images and figures from the TIFF stay in the DOCX?
+
Yes. Photos, diagrams, and figures are extracted at their original resolution and placed in the resulting DOCX near the recognized text.
Can I batch-convert many TIFF images at once?
+
Yes — upload a folder of TIFF scans and you will receive a ZIP of DOCX files (or, optionally, a single concatenated DOCX).
What is the largest TIFF I can convert?
+
Free accounts have a size limit that varies by file type; PRO accounts allow much larger files and multi-page TIFF batches.
Is the TIFF to DOCX conversion free?
+
Yes, within the free size limit. PRO unlocks batch jobs, additional OCR languages, and higher-fidelity layout reconstruction.
Does PDF.to keep my TIFF image?
+
No. The TIFF upload and the resulting DOCX are both deleted within an hour. OCR runs in an isolated worker.
Will the DOCX be searchable?
+
Yes — the recognized text becomes a real text layer in the DOCX, so search-and-replace, copy-paste, and find-in-document all work.
Can I edit the DOCX in Word, Pages, or Google Docs after conversion?
+
Yes. The output is a standard DOCX compatible with every major editor; open it like any other DOCX and edit normally.
