Swiftview
Issues
If you have installed Swiftview,
it automatically sets itself as the viewer for TIFF images, but cannot
view standard TIFF images. To resolve this, you must uninstall Swiftview.
If you require Swiftview, you can install Imaging for Windows after
installing Swiftview and this may resolve the problem.
Windows XP Issues
Unlike previous versions of Windows, Windows XP does not include
the Imaging for Windows component. A good alternative is the
Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. If your computer is registered with
another software program for TIFF imaging viewing and you are not happy
with the viewing quality or speed or have printing issues, you can
re-set Windows Picture and Fax Viewer as the default image viewer as
follows:
- Go into My Computer (or
Windows Explorer).
- Select the Tools - Folder
Options menu.
- Select the File Types
tab.
- Find the extension entries
for TIF and TIFF.
- When you click the entry for
TIF or TIFF, the "Opens with" parameter will show you what program
is used to open TIFF image files. For both TIF and TIFF, set this to
the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer by clicking the Change
button and selecting it from the list provided.
