I'm not sure if I can be of help here or not. I believe that TIFF files
are already "flattened" in that they have lost all of their layer objects.
Layers in Pagemaker, Photoshop, etc. is where the real value comes into
play. You can control the Z order of objects (which object is on top of
the other layers) and you can adjust and move an object in a layer
without losing the information in the lower layers.
Once the layers have been merged, or flattened, that information that
was hidden in lower layers (not visible) is lost. It's kinda like how
Microsoft Paint works.
If all you have is the TIFF, but have the original car photo, I'd
recreate. If all you have is the TIFF, you may be able to crop out the
old address, then "fix" the car, and add in the new address.
I've got Photoshop and I've got some time in the next couple of days if
you can accept some remote help.

I have some advertisments that have been created in 2004. They were
saved in a tiff format.
They have pictures of cars, etc. in them along with text.
I want to leave the picture of the car in there, but change the text
from an old address to the current address.
How do I do that ?
Do I need to create them from scratch and if so what type of tools do I
need to do so.
Signed, not the artistic type and needing to fix this asap <griN>
