Display PDF and TIFF images in VB.NET

Nothing fancy, I just want a control to display PDF and TIFF files in VB, and
perhaps let me zoom in and out of the image and scroll around.

I don't need to edit or do anything complex, just view the stuff. Surely
there is a built-in (i.e. FREE) control that will let me do this?

I am aware of the Acrobat Viewer control that you get when you install
Acrobat Viewer on your PC, but it doesn't cope with TIFFs.

Is it possible to use the Web Browser control to do this somehow? I tried
but with no success.

(P.S. am new to .NET but an old hand in VB Classic, so excuse my ignorance!)

Any help appreciated!
 
For the TIFFf I convert it to JPG and put the jpg in a picturebox.

For the PDF I do not know.
