Convert DDS to TIFF

If you are looking for software that will allow you to convert the DDS file to TIFF, you can find information about it on this page.

Input file

DDS

  • Full Name: DirectDraw Surface Format
  • Developer: Microsoft
Output file

TIFF

  • Full Name: Aldus Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) Bitmap Image
  • Developer: Adobe Systems

What is DDS file?

The DDS (DirectDraw Surface) .DDS file extension is a raster graphics file format created by Microsoft for storing data textures used by DirectX applications such as games, as well as non-graphical textures for things like sound and texture of fonts. The format supports lossless compression and can store images up to 4 GB in size, supporting 8, 16 and 32-bits per pixel of RGB or RGBA color. The format also stores audio data, which can be compressed using DirectSound compression. [ ⏩ ] DDS file extension

What is TIFF file?

The .TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) file extension is a bitmapped graphics file format commonly used in desktop publishing. It supports lossless compression, which means images in TIFF format retain all original details and colors after compression. History The TIFF file extension was created in the mid-80s by Aldus, now a division of Adobe Systems, and Microsoft. [ ⏩ ] TIFF file extension

How to convert the file from DDS to TIFF?

To successfully convert the DDS file to TIFF, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.DDS). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case TIFF (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than TIFF).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. DDS to TIFF. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting DDS files to TIFF files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension TIFF, while before this step we had the DDS file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new TIFF file, or not.

How can the file conversion help me?

The DDS file conversion is useful in many situations. It often happens that you need to send someone a file (e.g. a graphic file) in a specific format, other than the one the selected file is currently encoded. In such a case, you should check whether it is possible to convert it (e.g. z DDS to TIFF), and if the conversion is possible - download the appropriate software.
