The PBM utilities by Jef Poskanzer can convert files to various forms.  I
don't think .pcf or .tif are one of the known forms, but it is easy to write
a converter from PBM to your favorite format (assuming, of course, you have
a description of said format).

These should be available from a comp.sources.misc archive site.
