Answer 1

use tiffcp

usage: tiffcp [options] input... output.tiff

for instance:

tiffcp *.tiff output.tiff

and you will have a resulting multipage tiff

then tiff2pdf (a wrapper for ghostscript)

usage:  tiff2pdf [options] input.tiff

Answer 2

To install tiffcp use apt-get install libtiff-tools
