[Milsurplus] computer expert needed

[Albert LaFrance]

Tony,

The .tif format is an image file, like .jpg and .bmp .  An image editor like
PhotoShop should be able to open and view the files.  There's an open-source
freeware program called "GIMP" that should work, too.

There are also programs that will convert image files to PDFs.  I'm not
familiar with any of them, but I believe some are free or very inexpensive.
I think one is called "CutePDF".
