TIFF will be better for text than JPEG. Either option
can then be wrapped up into a PDF file (which people
seem to have much less trouble reading). If the pages
contain continous tone colour images, then you'll
need JPEG. If you have multicoloured text, then you
have an issue (assuming you want to keep individual
pages down below 50-250KB each).
