tif downloading and printing
I have access to the Erie County NY Clerk's office
database of filed and recorded documents. They are retreivable in tif format. However, the program from which they are to be downloaded indicates that Windows XP has "known problems with the TIF format and to contact Support. I have tried this and Microsoft support is useless and insists that I contact the OEM (Gateway) who completes the cycle by referring me back to Microsoft which refers me back to Gateway etc. ad infinitum. Appearently there is a "fix" somewhere. I can get the TIF file on screen but when I try to print out a copy the printer functions but produces a basically blank sheet. Is there a way to cause XP Professional to print these forms on file? Some ancient Fuji Camera TIF files may be the basis of the problem. |
