Microsoft Office Picture Manager is probably saving the TIF images using LZW compression without your knowledge. I know that Microsoft Picture It is guilty of that behavior. Re-save your TIF images using another photo editing program. Use the other program's File>Save As command to save as an uncompressed TIF and you should not have any more problems.
I had the same problem with Microsoft Picture It. It took me quite a while to figure it out. I finally figured out the problem by looking at the image's Properties in Microsoft Office Document Imaging. Terri ----- Original Message ---- From: M. Brenzel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Sunday, October 19, 2008 7:27:58 PM Subject: [LegacyUG] TIF images attached to sources I have TIF images of newspaper articles attached to events. They have been acquired from the microfilms of newspapers by using the reader attached to a computer for scanning right to the computer. I then save the image to my flash drive to bring home. Many of these articles are captured on a full page of the newspaper. Using Microsoft Office Picture Manager, I am able to crop the section of the page that I really need. If I attach the original image to the event detail, everything's ok but if I attach the cropped version (also saved as a TIF), it doesn’t appear. Does anyone know of any quirky file behavior resulting from using this software to crop the image? Mary ** $10 OFF when you spend $50 or more in our store. Use coupon code: ‘Legacy2008’ at checkout.
