Actually, all you have to do to recognize a TIFF image in Kurzweil
1000 is to open it. Multipage TIFF files are fine.
Keep in mind, though, that these are images. Its not like a simple
file conversion. In the same manner that you can get bad results
depending on what (and how) you scan something, you can get bad
results from an image.

Hi Monica, Wow, what a lot of work you have gone through to validate this book! Kurzweil does recognize tif images, but I think if you want to do it you have to put the tif in the images folder, then open Kurzweil, and set it for recognition only. Hit the scan key, and the file should recognize. Of course, the results may or may not be very good depending on the quality of the image and how well it likes your recognition settings. It's definitely true that tif is not one of the formats in which Bookshare accepts submissions. It would be perfectly within reason for you to reject these files. However, after your detective work it would be understandable if you felt the need to successfully vanquish this challenge. <grin>
One thing I'm not sure of is how Kurzweil deals with a single tif image that represents multiple pages--or is this a collection of tif files? Kurzweil's scans are actually tif images until they are recognized, but it's one file per page although the user fortunately doesn't have to deal with them that way thank goodness! Kellie
