It depends on what you want to achieve. If you want a one-time conversion of
tiff files to jpeg or gif, then you can use most converter programs. E.g. with
XnView (http://www.xnview.com)  it is possible to do such a conversion, even
in a batch series. However, if you want to include such a conversion possibility
in a more general way in another program, this is probably best done by using
a library. I'm not sure that libtiff is the best choice for this (there is no
tiff2jpeg program provided with libtiff), but you may get a more authorative
answer from the libtiff mailing list (http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff).
Perhaps the netpbm library is more appropriate; you should first convert the
tiff file to pnm format and then the pnm file to jpeg or gif.
