Convert TIFF to JSON

Convert TIFF to JSON to organise text and tables from a document scan in a structure for a program.

Convert TIFF to JSON to give a program the text and tables from a scanned document. The result is a structure with text, lines, and table data instead of an image.

What a JSON file from TIFF contains

JSON records the source name, format, and size, along with text and separate lines. For a multi-page TIFF, text from every page is collected in sequence in one item. Detected tables include a header and rows, making them easier to pass to an accounting system or script.

A straight scan with clear printing gives a more useful result. Skewed pages, faint copies, and small characters can affect recognised values; if no wording can be read, there is no file.

How to convert TIFF to JSON

  1. Upload a TIFF containing a document scan or table.
  2. Choose JSON as the output format.
  3. Download the result and check important details against the source pages.

FAQ

How does a multi-page scan appear?

Text from every page is placed in sequence in one JSON item. Keep the line order when parsing the result, and check important data against the source TIFF.

When should I choose TXT instead?

The TIFF to TXT converter suits reading and searching by a person. Choose JSON when code needs to read the result.
