I have copied some text about TIFF from the comp.graphics 
"frequently asked questions list" and hope this helps.
Try to ask at comp.graphics if you have further questions.

[...]
TIFF Software, by Sam Leffler <sam@okeeffe.berkeley.edu>.  Nice
portable library for reading and writing TIFF files, plus a few tools
for manipulating them and reading other formats.  Available via FTP as
ucbvax.berkeley.edu:pub/tiff/*.tar.Z or uunet.uu.net:graphics/tiff.tar.Z
[...]
Don't forget to set binary mode when you FTP tar files.  For you MILNET
folks who still don't have name servers, the IP addresses are:

    expo.lcs.mit.edu		18.30.0.212
    ftp.ee.lbl.gov		128.3.254.68
    cs.utah.edu			128.110.4.21
    nl.cs.cmu.edu		128.2.222.56
    venera.isi.edu		128.9.0.32
    ucbvax.berkeley.edu		128.32.133.1
    weedeater.math.yale.edu	130.132.23.17
    freebie.engin.umich.edu	141.212.68.23
    pprg.unm.edu		129.24.13.10


8) Format documents for GIF, TIFF, IFF, BIFF, NFF, OFF, etc.

You almost certainly don't need these.  Read the above item 7 on free
image manipulation software.  Get one or more of these packages and
look through them.  Chances are excellent that the image converter you
were going to write is already there.  But if you still want one of the
format documents, many such files are available by anonymous ftp from
titan.rice.edu (128.42.1.30) in directory public/graphics.formats.
These files were collected off the net and are believed to be correct.
This archive includes pixel formats, and two- and three-dimensional
object formats.  Other file format descriptions are welcome, send to
Mark Hall <foo@rice.edu>.
