I only saved to tif because I used the printer software's scan function 
which only offered bmp, jpg, tif, and png as out-put options. I felt tif 
would be 'good enough' until I could get them set up on my laptop (my 
wife's computer doesn't have The GIMP, space is at a premium on her 
machine atm and just no room or justification for a program she won't 
use). Once I have them in xcf, the tif's will go away. Maybe. I dunno. 
It sounded like a good idea at 2:30 this morning.
