  • Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
  • Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported.
  • HEIF container: libheif (LGPL); licences, source and relink files

What happens when you convert HEIC to TGA?

Multiple source images

Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.

Animation becomes a still

Still image output. Animated files use only the first frame; animation is not preserved.

HDR to SDR

Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.

Lossless sample storage

Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.

Is HEIC → TGA right for you?

Good choice when

  • TGA fits your delivery use: Textures & graphics assets.
  • You can choose the source image or part needed for delivery.
  • You want a still illustration from an animated source.
  • You need an SDR delivery copy and can review its tone mapping.

Probably not when

  • You require a complete collection, page set or multipart round trip.
  • Motion, frame timing or loop behaviour must survive.
  • You need the original HDR range for relighting or grading.
  • You assume format-level alpha support guarantees matching transparent edges.

Sample precision & colour
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.
Metadata & colour
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.
Compression
HEIC: Lossy & lossless → TGA: Lossless HEIC: HEIC commonly uses lossy HEVC; HEVC also has lossless coding tools. Actual quality, bit depth and chroma depend on the encoded profile and settings, not on the .heic extension. TGA: TGA can be uncompressed or losslessly RLE-compressed. Attribute bits and version-2 alpha semantics matter; the fourth byte must not automatically be treated as opacity.
Transparency
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported.
Animation
Still image output. Animated files use only the first frame; animation is not preserved.
Colour depth
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported.
HDR
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.
Multiple images
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported.
Dimensions
Rendered image dimensions are retained within the converter limits; this tool does not offer resizing. Orientation handling depends on the source decoder.
Metadata
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
