Wir verstehen die Bedeutung datenschutzkonformer Abläufe, insbesondere im DACH-Raum, und stellen sicher, dass Ihre sensiblen Daten stets geschützt sind. Vertrauen Sie auf eine Plattform, die nicht nur technische Exzellenz, sondern auch höchste Standards in puncto Datensicherheit garantiert, um Ihre PTIF-Dateien mühelos und sicher in SUN-Dateien umzuwandeln.

  • Archivierung von CAD-Daten
  • Austausch technischer Dokumente
  • Sichere Weitergabe von Konstruktionsplänen

In Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz wird bei der Langzeitarchivierung von technischen Zeichnungen häufig auf offene und standardisierte Formate gesetzt. Die Konvertierung zu SUN kann hier eine Rolle spielen, um die Interoperabilität mit älteren Systemen oder spezifischen Viewer-Anforderungen zu gewährleisten.

About PTIF (PYRAMID TIFF) to SUN Conversion

PTIF and SUN are both image formats, but they differ in important ways. PTIF is a widely used file format. SUN is a widely used file format.

When you convert PTIF to SUN, the goal is to convert between formats quickly. Converting PTIF to SUN maintains high quality with CocoConvert's optimised encoder settings. Understanding these technical differences helps you choose the right format for your workflow.

Your PTIF file is decoded and re-encoded as SUN. The conversion involves 4 steps: (1) your ptif file is uploaded and validated, (2) the file is decoded (parsed into its raw data), (3) the data is re-encoded in sun format, (4) the converted file is ready for download.

CocoConvert's converter handles the entire pipeline server-side using FFmpeg, Sharp, and qpdf — battle-tested libraries used by streaming platforms and enterprise tools. Files are encrypted in transit and deleted within 24 hours.

This conversion is ideal when you When you need a SUN file. For the opposite direction, CocoConvert also supports SUN to PTIF conversion.

How to Convert PTIF (PYRAMID TIFF) to SUN

  1. 1

    Upload .ptif file

    Select your PTIF file by dragging it to the upload zone or using the file picker. Batch upload is available for multiple files.

  2. 2

    Choose .sun

    Set SUN as the output format. The converter uses optimal settings based on the PTIF→SUN conversion profile.

  3. 3

    Convert

    The server-side engine decodes your PTIF file and re-encodes it as SUN. Processing time depends on file size and complexity.

  4. 4

    Download result

    Grab your converted .sun file. Multiple output files can be downloaded together.
