Adobe's Technical Support Team says there is currently no engine or way to do this.

Does anyone have a work-around or indirect method that might achieve an accurate .PDF-to-TIFF conversion??

Yes, there is at least a workaround:

  1. convert the PDF files back to PostScript using Acrobat exchange
  2. run this PostScript through Ghostscript to produce TIFF
