Hi Doug,

When you have your image open in ACR, look down at the bottom of the window 
in the center. 

You'll see words that are something like:

Adobe RGB(1998) 16 bit 4000 by 3000 (12.0MP) 240ppi

It's underlined which is to invite you to click on it in order to bring up a 
dialog box in which you can set the color space, bit depth, etc.

You don't set this as being a TIFF file, though, because opening an image in 
ACR and then accepting the change will open it again in Photoshop. At that 
point you can save it as TIFF and in Photoshop you can set the default file 
type to being TIFF although I don't think you do that directly in the 
preferences.

Hope this helps!

Adam
