You need to be able to open and print your original document in order to create a TIFF image. For example, to create a TIFF image from a PDF file, you would need to have Adobe Reader or another PDF viewer that has printing capabilities, installed on your computer.
TIFF Image Printer 12 uses Profiles, which are a group of settings, to create the output image you want. TIFF Image Printer comes with a few system profiles including: Color Optimized TIFF, Monochrome TIFF, Fax TIFF, and Serialized Color Optimized TIFF. To create multipaged color TIFF images, simply set the profile “Color Optimized TIFF” as TIFF Image Printer’s default profile.
