Inserting a TIFF file into a LaTeX document can lead to errors, particularly the "Cannot determine size of graphic in image.tif (no Bounding Box)" message. This issue arises because LaTeX requires a bounding box to determine the dimensions of the graphic. The solution is to convert the TIFF file to EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) format, which LaTeX can handle more effectively. After converting the file to EPS, the inclusion in the LaTeX document works without errors.

I am trying to insert the tif file:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/81787406/image.tif

into a Latex file with:

\usepackage{graphicx}\begin{figure}[ht!]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=50mm]{image.tif}
\end{figure}

but when I latex it I get the error: "Cannot determine size of graphic in image.tif (no Bounding Box)."

Can someone help with this as I now next to nothing about sort of thing. thanks
