    Faxed TIF Files


    Hello -


    I cannot open any Faxes that have been sent as a TIF file. I have tried to save it as word, pdf and jpeg without success. I have downloaded file software that claims to open TIF files also. I've read some "solutions" in the community but they are very old. I have a new computer running Microsoft 10 and we use Microsoft 365 at our office.

    :)

    Windows 10 will not send fax - wants a tif file!?

    I scanned a few documents as jpegs. I want to use Windows 10 fax and scan, and now get this message

    Windows can't fax or preview the attached file type. Try installing a program that allows you to print .tif files, save the attached file as a .tif file, and then try again.

    What?!

    I can convert them to tif files - which is very tedious, and then they're TOO BIG to fax

    And then when it fails, I have to do the WHOLE thing over again

    Why can't I fax a jpeg? I used to be able to do this.

    I also need to fax multiple page pdfs. Will WFS be able to do this?

    I REALLY need to get this working asap.

    How are you trying to send the jpg file? I do this by opening the file in an application, and then printing to the FAX selection. The file is automatically converted to the proper FAX format (tif) and sends correctly.
