David,
go to Graphics Converter from from Lemke Software <http://
www.lemkesoft.com/> it will convert almost every graphic format to
almost any other.
I am however surprised that Preview doesn't do it. Perhaps it uses a
compressor that is not supported by the Mac?
Regards,
Eugene

I have recently converted from a Windows PC to my first Mac. I have
managed to successfully transfer all of the necessary files (eg
personal files, photos etc) from my PC to my Mac however I am now
having difficulty viewing one particular file format. I utilised
the "Microsoft Office Document Imaging" software on my PC to
capture scanned document images, which were saved with a .tif
extension. When I try to open these files on my Mac using Preview I
get the following message "Couldn’t open the file. It may be
corrupt or a file format that Preview doesn’t recognise."
In an attempt to determine if the files had been corrupted in the
transfer process, I transferred a number of the files back to my PC
and successfully opened them. The file sizes have remained unchanged.
I would appreciate any advice regarding the steps I need to take in
order to view these files on my Mac.
Kind regards,
David Ring.
