Turning a pile of TIFF scans into one PDF
You have a folder full of scanned TIFF pages. Some are single-page and some are multipage. You need to send them as one PDF. Opening each file and printing to PDF by hand takes forever. This converter is built for that job: add the TIFF files, press Convert, and get a PDF.

Key features
Merge many TIFFs into one multipage PDF
Add single-page or multipage TIFF files to the list and the program combines them into one PDF. You can also save each TIFF as its own separate PDF.
Batch conversion with one click
You can load a whole set of files and convert them together, so you don't repeat the steps for every scan.
Control over page size, margins and image size
You can set page margins and change the image size or page size, so the PDF comes out the way you want it.
Originals stay untouched
The conversion doesn't alter your source image files, so the TIFFs remain as they were.
Who it's for
It suits anyone who regularly turns scans, faxes or multi-frame TIFF files into PDFs for sharing or archiving, and who wants a small desktop tool that works offline.
