Remove EXIF Data From TIFF Files

TIFF files from scanners, cameras, and print workflows often embed EXIF and IPTC tags — including resolution, software, and sometimes location when sourced from digital cameras. To remove EXIF data from TIFF before web publishing, export a JPEG or PNG copy for delivery, then strip tags from that shareable file.

MetadataWipe cleans JPEG and PNG locally without server upload. That fits TIFF-heavy workflows where the master stays in archive format but the public copy is a cleaned JPEG or PNG export.

How to use MetadataWipe in 3 steps

1. Open the tool. Go to the MetadataWipe homepage and select a JPEG or PNG from your device, or drag and drop the file into the workspace.
2. Review and remove metadata. MetadataWipe scans for common metadata markers, then creates a clean browser-generated copy by drawing the image to a canvas and exporting a new file.
3. Download and verify. Save the cleaned file (named with -metadatawipe before the extension). Re-open it in the tool or a trusted viewer to confirm sensitive tags are gone before you share.

About Remove EXIF Data From TIFF

TIFF supports multiple metadata standards — EXIF, IPTC, and XMP — depending on how the file was created. Archival TIFFs from scanners may record software and timestamps; camera TIFFs may include GPS. Anyone downloading the share copy can inspect these fields with standard tools.

For web and email, convert TIFF to JPEG or PNG at appropriate quality, then run MetadataWipe on the export you actually distribute. Keep the untouched TIFF in private storage if you need lossless masters for print.

MetadataWipe removes typical embedded EXIF from JPEG/PNG via canvas export, includes verification in the metadata panel, and requires no account. Confirm the cleaned file before attaching to tickets or uploading to CMS galleries.
