PDF creation
I think there is a tool under imagemagick called convert
that can take a TIFF and create PDF.
I think there are both Unix and Windows versions available.

Image magick does conversions very nicely, but AFAICT it won't handle
combining multiple tiffs into a single document.

Under Linux, you can do the following to create a PDF from a bunch of
TIFF images.
Assuming the original files are named t1-*.tif (change for different
file names)
tiffcp t1-*.tif t1.tif
tiff2ps -a t1.tif > t1.ps
ps2pdf t1.ps t1.pdf
rm t1.tif
rm t1.ps
tiffcp converts the multiple files into a single multi-image tiff file.
tiff2ps converts this multi-image tiff file into postscript (very large
file)
ps2pdf converts the postscript file into a PDF.
rm kills the intermediate files.
