It definitely works with pdf, not sure about tiff. The files are tiffs; under my current setup they open by default in Preview (which is fine for both viewing and printing).

Also, thanks to Scott Haneda for the earlier suggestion, though it's sitting on the back burner for the moment, because I'm lazily hoping for something simpler. -- Jeremy Whipple <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Setagaya-ku, Tokyo -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
