When canning tomatoes the liquid and solids have seperated in the jar. The seals are good. Are they safe to eat or do I need to reprocess?

Home canned tomatoes, tomato juice, and tomato sauces with liquid at the top and solids at the bottom are quite normal. It only reflects that the juice was made prior to heating. For example, the tomatoes were chopped, run through the steamer, sieve, or food mill while still raw and prior to heating.
