The best format for this is dejavu, which we support, but we don't
have support for either the browser plugins or serverside autoconversion.
The only advantage I see for tiff is that some of the browser plugins have nice navigation abilities.. but the same is true for dejavu... if we're going to put something up that needs a browser plugin it should be the free software solution. Dejavu also happens to have MUCH better compression, and it would also be an acceptable lossy solution for photographs as well.. better than jpeg.
Sorry, dejavu isn't yet supported in the ProofreadPage extension.
