Why convert WBK to TIFF?
A WBK file is the backup copy Microsoft Word saves when “Always create backup copy” is switched on, holding the previous saved version of a document. The TIFF shows each page of the backed-up document with its text, styles, tables and pictures, laid out on the page size it was saved with.
TIFF is a long-established image format for archiving, scanning and print workflows, and it holds the rendered page at full resolution.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert WBK to TIFF?
Drop your WBK file above and press Convert. Our servers open the backup as a Word document in LibreOffice, export its pages to a PDF and render each page as an image. The result is saved as a TIFF image, ready to download.
Which version of the document does a WBK show in the TIFF?
A WBK holds the version of the document from before its most recent save, so the TIFF shows the document exactly as it stood at that point.
Is a WBK read as a Word document for the TIFF?
Yes. The backup is opened as a Word .doc file by LibreOffice, which lays out its text, styles, tables and pictures before each page is rendered as a TIFF.
What happens when a WBK file fills several TIFF pages?
Each page is rendered at 144 dpi and saved as its own TIFF image, named page-1, page-2 and so on, and they download together as one ZIP. A single page downloads as one TIFF file.
Is the TIFF from a WBK file a single image?
Each rendered page is saved as its own standard TIFF image at full resolution. When there are several pages you receive one TIFF per page in a ZIP, numbered in order.
Is my .wbk file kept private?
Your file is uploaded over an encrypted connection, converted on our servers and deleted automatically within 24 hours. We never read, share or keep your files, and no account is needed.
