I'm not sure what you mean by "will not distort." TIFF is a raster format consisting of individual pixels. It WILL distort if resized beyond a narrow range. The graphics that will not distort are those in a vector format such as .svg or .eps (unless it's an eps that includes a raster image). What is the format of the pic you want to use *before* you save it as a .tiff? How much resizing will you be doing? With raster graphics, it's always wise to size the graphic to fit the size it will be in your printed document, with enough pixels to give you at least 300 dots per inch OF THE FINISHED SIZE. (Dots per inch is meaningless without reference to the actual size the graphic will be printed at.) --Judy M.
