On the other hand, the way to do it in GC is not immediately obvious - it's
erroring my 'save window 1 as "PDF "' but there must be some way to do it in
GC.


On Lemke's website, they provide a script for conversion (listed below) but for some reason, it continually opens my Tiffs in Preview and NOT GC, even though it's GC being told to open the file.



tell application "Finder"
activate
set file_path to (choose folder with prompt "Pick your folder")
-- display dialog file_path as text
set file_list to every file of folder file_path whose name contains ".tif"
end tell


set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {"."}

repeat with i from 1 to number of items in file_list
	set myitem to item i of file_list
	set my_file to name of myitem
	-- display dialog my_file as text
	set my_new_file1 to first text item of my_file & ".pdf" as text

	tell application "GraphicConverter"
		try
			open myitem
			save window my_file in my_new_file1 as PDF
			close window my_new_file1
		end try
	end tell

end repeat

set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {""}
