IUP uses the older version of Ariel 3.x something, and we have troubles with tiff files from time to time. We will get an error message that the tiff is an invalid format. In those cases, I 'reprint' the tiff file using the Microsoft Office Document Image Writer function on my computer, save it to a file, and re-import it into Ariel. This usually works. You might try this.

If the TIF files are scanned at 300 dpi or 150 dpi, they should import fine but may not work at other resolutions or if they were scanned as a mix of resolutions.

Now that the branch libraries all have scanners, we want to send them with a flash drive ...scan the documents, return to our office and import into Ariel. Upon testing this yesterday, it did not work...neither uploading as a pdf or a tiff. What are we missing? Is there a setting that needs to be changed/ Thanks Nada A.
