Why do some of the TIF log images open up blank or as a narrow strip?
This problem usually occurs because the TIF image viewer you are using can not handle the large image dimensions of the scanned image. While most picture and fax viewers can handle large file sizes, large file dimensions are all together different. Most image viewers are designed to handle pictures and faxes. The page dimensions of these images are usually 8-1/2 by 11 inches or smaller. Scanned logs can have image dimensions exceeding 100 feet in length. To put this in perspective, take a 100 foot long log image scanned at 300 DPI (dots per inch) and you get an image 360,000 pixels long. To get a 360,000 pixel long image from an 11 inch piece of paper, you would have to scan it at 32,727 DPI. You may need to install a third party viewer that can handle these large dimensions. If your image viewer does not have a plugin for your web browser, save the TIF image to your computer first and then open it with your viewer.
