I'm looking for a free and easy way to save a TIFF ( TIF ) file to the PDF format with a new name. Image Events doesn't do it, Automator doesn't let me control the location and filename, I didn't see it in Smile, and ImageMagick seems to require a huge complicated terminal installation. I'm thinking more of a simple shell command or binary where I can do something like "tif2pdf /folders/infile.tif /differentfolders/newnames.pdf" or similar. Hopefully it's already in OS X somewhere, but it would be OK to have an osaxen, binary or an app to install. It seems weird to me that this doesn't already exist, as I read that PDF is the Mac's display technology.
Thanks,
