There are many tools to do this. Your reference to "simple
PDF wrapper" suggests you think TIFF files are embedded in
PDF files. They are not.  PDF files contain the pixel data
from the TIFF file, so there is no way around analysing
the TIFF file and extracting the scan lines; usually
decompressing them too.

This requires a detailed knowledge of both the TIFF and PDF
formats. If you want to start on this route you will either
need libraries that handle this, or to spend a lot of time
reading the TIFF and PDF specifications in full.  The second
route is interesting, but unlikely to be cost effective.
