Will Lightroom do this? If not how do I do this in Photoshop?

RGB is not a file format, but a color model. TIFF and PSD files can be RGB files, but they can be CMYK too for example. So what exactly do you want to convert? A RAW image perhaps? Yes, Lightroom will do this when you export the image.

Thank you so much for your prompt reply. I didn't realize RBG was not a file format. As you may have guessed, I am a newbie to the world of photo editing. I am trying to figure out the best way to convert photos to files that I can send to a company (Decals4Artists) to create decals for me that I can fuse on glass. The company requires files in tif or psd. Ideally, I would send them black and white. I may need to convert color to black and white. So one question is how to do this. Second question. A friend sent me the photo they want me to use in a piece in RBG and now I am wondering if and how I can convert it to a Tif.

You are still confusing RGB and file formats. What file format did you friend use? What is the file name extension?
