I'm pretty certain this wasn't happening before I recently upgraded to Monterey, but if you take a multi-page TIFF file and export it to PDF, the resulting PDF repeats the first page and only the first page multiple times (same number of pages as the original document, but repeats the 1st page). Anyone else see this?
Mac mini 2018 or later
To get around it, goto Export
Format: PDF
Quartz Filter:Grey Tone
Alpha tick
Create PDF/A tick
Create Linearised PDF no tick
(Was desperate so tried everything and this worked)

If you export Format: PDF and use the Quartz Filter: Lightness decrease, and check nothing else, you can preserve color images in that multi-part TIFF export to PDF.
Tested: macOS 12.1.
If one has the optional ImageMagick installed, the following will convert a multi-part TIFF image to an equal number of PDF pages with color images retained:
convert mptiff24nc.tif -density 300x300 -compress jpeg mp.pdf
Also tested on macOS 12.1.
You rock. Thank you.
Yes, I see the same thing. I suggest sending feedback to Apple since they will have to fix this:
Oh wow, Thank you so much for this! It worked for me as well. I've also sent feedback to Apple, I hope they get this fixed soon. Thanks again!
Totally forgot about this option. Thanks!
You are welcome.
Mac Preview export from multi-page TIFF to PDF bug (new in Monterey?)
