Hi Gauri,
First of all, gifs are invariably low res (72dpi) files and are only really
suitable for viewing on the internet, for example.
Secondly, what you are seeing in your pdf is a preview of the image rather
than the image file itself.
I suggest you look at the original picture files in photoshop if possible,
and have a look at the quality/resolution etc. 
With regards to distiller settings you might want to look at the resolution
the images are being downsized to (150pdi is the minimum you need), and
check what option of pdf is being selected - if you need to print good
quality files then you need press-optimised settings.
Hope this helps,
Chris (Express and Star).
