OT: Computer Techie Request, TIF to PDF converter Options

[Eddie914]

Can anyone help me find a TIF to PDF converter application? Hopefully there is some freeware available?

Please post a link or send a PM.

Thanks

Eddie

I picked up an new (used old) Ricoh IS-420 SCSI document scanner for $120. I needed a 20+ page per minute scanner and really did not want to spent $750 to $1000 on a new scanner right now to reduce the paper bulk in my tax preparation business that I started last fall (I started my own practice after many years with a local firm).

The scanner did not come with any scanning software so I'm using Microsoft Office Document Scanning and it only saves to TIF and MDI. I find that PDF is more universally accepted so I was hoping to be able to find a free converter.

I scan documents like questionaires, bank statements, IRS forms, etc.

My scans are commonly 50 to 100 pages.

I'm just going to send the stuff off today in TIF.

Thanks
