Hi Robn803,

ExportPDF does not have the ability to convert PDF documents to TIFF.

You may want to check out Adobe Acrobat. Acrobat can save PDFs as TIFFs. We offer free 30-day trial of Acrobat here: http://www.adobe.com/go/tryacrobatpro/

David,

When I tried that link, the second one, to try Acrobat Pro, it redirected me here https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=acrobat_pro&loc=e n, with an "Error processing your request" message on the page.

You're correct of course, about using Adobe Acrobat to save PDFs as TIFF, and JPEG or PNG too! I never knew that was possible, as it has been awhile since I used TIFF format. Last time I used TIFF was when sending proofs to advertising agencies.

Hi Lisa,

Do you want to try the link again? When I clicked it, it redirected here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=acrobat_pro&loc=e n

To complete the download of the trial, you'll be asked to log in with your Adobe ID.

Not sure if there was an issue with the site when you tried to click it.

Dave, thank you so much! I know it is the same URL that you posted, but I just tried it now, the one in your reply, and I had no problem getting to the download screen! I was logged in before with my Adobe ID, and am logged in now too. Appreciate that you took the time to reply, cause the RSS notification or whatever thingy that I set told me that you had replied. If you hadn't, I would have totally forgot about this probably! I look forward to giving Acrobat X Pro a try with the free trial!
