How to show a tif or jpg images
« on: June 09, 2014, 08:01:59 AM »
Hi All,

Our system creates tif's on my local C:\ drive from word and pdf documents. I would like to view the tif's on a popup memory form. I get the path and tif name from my sql database. I could not find an example app to show me how to do this. Suggestions?

Ashley,

You can display a JPG image in a normal html image control.  Most browser cannot display tiff, but you can use http://clarionfreeimage.com to convert the tiff page to jpg.or png and display that.  If you need multipage support, let me know.  I may have something for you.

see example FileDownload (40) for an example of sharing from outside the web folder.
Also, as Larry says, you will likely need to convert from TIFF to a more web-friendly format.

Cheers
Bruce

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the info. I already have Clarion Free Image on my machine.

I will look at that example for guidance.

Thanks Bruce and Larry!
