HEIC uses compact image encoding. Converting from TIFF can make the file smaller, but encoding may discard some fine visual detail.
- Add multiple images and process them together with the selected output format.
- Open the finished HEIC file and check fine details, layout and compatibility in the app where you plan to use it.
