I don’t use .tiff or .tif much today, but I have hundreds of drawings saved in that format, but it seems like that they can’t be opened on an iPad Pro. Is that correct? If so, it isn’t very Pro, I’d say.
Is there any app I can use to open them with, or even convert them to any format which can be opened in iPadOS?

The mystery is solved. I viewed them on my iMac and could open one of them in Preview after I had changed the name. The reason why they didn't open was because they no longer showed the file extension and how I had added the date it was made, created confusion, since it read like 9.10.99 and thus .99 had become the file extension. So I need to change the names of all of them, which may be a lot of work, since it didn't work to change them in a batch for some reason. Perhaps I can create a workflow in Automator...
Hello,
You will need to download an application that supports .tiff.
Here are some suggested applications:
Pixelmator
Pixelmator Photo
Affinity Photo
Photoshop
I have Pixelmator and Affinity Photo but couldn’t open the images with any of them. Later, I will check the images on my iMac to see if there is something else about them. They are lineart or bitmap. Could that be it?
That is very strange, those applications should not have any problem opening a .tiff image. It shouldn’t matter if they were lineart or bitmap as these applications are able to support any form of the format. Are you certain these images are not corrupt?
