I have tiff2pdf working. I did the following to make it work:

In bin/faxrcvd, I made the following changes:
1) TIFF2PDF looks like:
TIFF2PDF=bin/tiff2pdf

2) FILETYPE looks like:
FILETYPE=pdf

3) Added the following:
if [ -f $FILE ]
then
    $TIFF2PDF -o ${FILE}.pdf $FILE
fi


The above may or may not work for you. Give it a shot if you like.
I'm running hylafax-4.3.0 on FreeBSD.
