Anyone know of a TIF image viewer?

I can view the files in "Pictures", but the zoom is poor - whole page or 50% (I think)

Is there a full-screen viewer that I can scroll around with?

*BUMP*

Anyone know of anything?

I'm starting to get faxes through in TIFF format, but the built-in viewer isn't too good at handling them!

Can you not convert them to jpeg or bmp on a pc?

Err, not really, no! 😞

The fax system sends the incoming faxes through as email attachements in TIFF format.

I want to be able to download the email and view them on the phone when I'm out and about - without having to trudge back to a PC to read them.

Hmm, i dont know much about the picture viewing software for symbian, do none of them have a 'save as' function?

I do know about TIFF's though, and they are extremely big files because of the high resolutions they handle, makes using them a real pain unless you absalutely need to have images that big (posters etc.)

Sorry, not much help there.

did you have to install anything to make it work?

On the P800 and P900, none of the pictures are really that "clear", they should all have at least one more zoom mode 😞

Hmmm, just tried Photo Editor and it says "Not enough free memory to perform this operation" when I try to open a 12kb TIF!

I've got 6.17Mb free! Me thinks that it doesn't work on the P9 maybe.

Looks like the built-in TIFF viewer will have to do for now
