TIFF to Text PHP Overview
Convert TIFF scans to machine-readable text using accurate OCR tuned for scanned documents, faxes, and archives. Multi-page TIFF files are recognized page by page, so nothing past the first page is lost. Choose the enhanced recognition quality to get better results on low quality scans, small print, and rotated text. Select OCR languages to boost accuracy for multilingual content and deliver copy-ready text for search, analytics, and automation. Includes a ready-to-use PHP SDK.

File
File Supported formats: .tif .tiffFile to be converted. Value can be URL or file content.
Preprocessing
Bool Default: TrueEnables advanced image preprocessing (e.g., deskew, thresholding, resizing, sharpening) to enhance text clarity and improve OCR accuracy at the cost of increased processing time. Applies to the fast OCR quality only.
OcrQuality
Collection Default: fastThe OcrQuality setting controls the speed and accuracy trade-off of text recognition. Fast is the default and processes pages quickly. Enhanced uses a more advanced recognition engine that reads low quality scans, photos, small print, rotated text and clear handwriting much better, at the cost of slower processing.
OcrLanguage
Collection Default: enSet the OCR language. Ask support to add your language if missing.
Values: ar ca zh-cn zh-tw da nl en fi fa de el he it ja ko lt no pl pt ro ru sl es sv tr ua thStoreFile
Bool Default: FalseWhen the StoreFile parameter is set to True, your converted file is written to ConvertAPI’s encrypted, temporary storage and made available via a time-limited secure download URL, valid for up to 3 hours. After this period, the file is permanently deleted.
When StoreFile is set to False, conversion happens entirely in-memory. The raw file bytes are streamed back in the API response without touching disk or external storage, ensuring maximum security and zero persistence so that only you can access the content.
