Yes, although GIF and JPEG files are best suited for viewing on computer monitors. Due to compression, these image formats can occasionally lose unexpected detail or color.

The two most likely problems are related to image type and layers. For instance, your image type must be "Indexed" for GIF, but "RGB" for TIFF. Try a different image type (look under the "Image" menu). If you have more than 1 layer in your image, you probably need to merge the visible layers, and/or "flatten" the image. Both operations are available under the "Layers" menu or from the "Layers" dialog. Flattening will destroy any background transparency.

These are attractive formats as they result in much smaller files than TIFF. Unfortunately, there are several good reasons why you should not use them for print. The compression process used by JPEG discards some of the data in your image resulting in a reduction in image quality.

Digital Photography FAQ
A typical image editor will decompress and recompress a JPEG file when you save it, resulting in a loss of image quality.

GIF's disadvantages are that it can only support 8-bit color (or a palette no greater than 256 colors).
