I get the message "Microsoft Office Document Imaging does not support this type of TIFF file."
The file you are trying to open is not compatible with Office Document Imaging. If you have access to the application that created the file, try using that application to open the file, and then save it in a different format if possible.
Office Document Imaging supports most types of Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) files, including:
- All file types listed in the TIFF 6.0 specification, except the version 6.0 implementation of JPEG.
- Different compression types (color, grayscale, or black and white) for each page of a multi-page document.
- TIFF images with 1-bit, 4-bit, 8-bit, or 24-bit color depth (both palette and non-palette).
- RGB and CMYK color spaces.
- Tiled images.
Office Document Imaging does not support:
- YCbCr color space, except when the image is JPEG.
- CIE Lab color space.
- Images with more than five samples per pixel, or a sample size larger than 32 bits.
