Ric,

If I understand your question, you can use the key combinatin <Ctrl><Shift> to 
insert a hard page break to start a new page.

I do this sort of thing all the time. Open a new text document. Set your 
margins if necessary. Insert picture from file. Right-click & select format 
picture if necessary. With your cursor positioned after the picture, enter a 
hard page break. Repeat as necessary.

There also is a program 'tiff2pdf' that you could use to do this from the 
command line, but I've never taken the time to figure out all the options.
