That is, the output turns out a full text PDF, the text in which you can copy or produce a search by it.

Method 5: GIMP

Convert Tiff in PDF can some graphic editors, one of the best among which GIMP is deservedly considered deservedly.

1. Run GIMP and click "File" and "Open".



2. Starts a picture selection tool. Go to where TIFF is placed. Noting Tiff, click Open.

In order for a specific page to be current, you just need to click on it. The fact is that GIMP allows you to reformat in PDF only each page separately. Therefore, we will have to be alternately every element to make an active and carry out a procedure with it, which is described below.



5. After selecting the desired page and display it in the center, click "File" and then "Export AS ...".

   • Skip the hidden and completely transparent layers.

   But these settings apply only if specific tasks are set with their use. If there is no additional tasks, you can simply "export".



9. Export procedure is performed. After completing it, the ready-made PDF file will be in the directory that the user specified earlier in the Export Image window. But do not forget that the resulting PDF corresponds to only one TIFF page. Therefore, to convert the next page, click on its previews at the top of the GIMP window. After that, do all those manipulations that were described in this method, starting from paragraph 5. The same actions need to be done with all pages of the TIFF file that you wish to reformat in PDF.

   

   Of course, the method using GIMP will take much more forces and time than any of the previous ones, since it involves the conversion of each TIFF page separately. But at the same time, this method has an important advantage - it is absolutely free.

As you can see, there are quite a few programs of different orientations that allow you to reformat TIFF in PDF: converters, application digitization applications, graphic editors. If you want to create a PDF with a text layer, then for this purpose, use a specialized software to digitize text. If you need to produce a mass transformation, and the presence of a text layer is not an important condition, then in this case the converters are most likely. If you need to convert to PDF one-page tiff, then individual graphic editors can quickly cope with this task.
