    Hi Paul,

    A tif file is an image file and as such it will not open in Word - you can add it to a Word document by choosing Insert - Picture

    You can open the tif file in the Photos App and choose File - Print and then choose Microsoft Print to PDF as the printer, this will create a PDF version of the file . . .

    In all honesty, tif files are generally much clearer than jpg files, if it does not look clear on the screen, maybe get another version of the scanned file . . .

    The TIFF file would be separate for each page-You need to add them one by one on the word Document and Print it

    Andre,

    thanks for this.

    After going thru the step for some reason I only end up with a word document with the first page of the file.

    the other pages do not transfer.

    any thoughts?

    thanks

    Paul
