Microsoft office 2010 Document viewer problem?

Question

I have recently brought and downloaded microsoft office 2010 and I am trying to open a scanned document that is in a .TIFF format but my microsoft office did not come with a document viewer, is there a way to download one or another solution that will allow me to open a scanned .TIFF format document in microsoft word

Answer 1

A TIFF file is an image file, that is the computer just knows it as dots of different colours.

It sounds like you want it as text to go into Word.



You can download various OCR (Optical Character Recognition) programs but the free ones aren't very good.



If you have a full installation of Microsoft Office then you will have Microsoft Office Document Imaging in the Microsoft Office folder in Start, Programs. This is quite a good OCR program which can convert an image to text.

Answer 2

Microsoft place of work 2007 and 2010 use a distinctive document form for saving pages than 2003, so which you will not have the skill to open 2007 and 2010 records in 2003. there's a loose open source and criminal software stated as libreoffice that i take advantage of on my notebook and it quite is able to open 2007 and 2010 information.
