I may not totally understand all the nuances, but since the paper size
might be letter, legal, etc. the convert method "i think" is supposed
to determine this automatically and not require any inspection of the
image and require extra switches in order to properly convert the
image. I am not sure tiff2pdf does all that, and was trying to find a
simple way to accurately convert whatever got sent through.

The other method would be to use a python script that changes the tiff
to a postscript file then from postscript to pdf. As a result of that
conversion it does not have any problems it seems with the different
sizes.

 I guess I could test against some different paper sizes and see if
either method have pronounced problems with different sized pages.
