I have a document saved as TIFF file on a CD-RW. I currenly have MS Office
2003 on my computer. Is the TIFF file compatible with MS Office 2000 or any
other older versions of MS Office?

Hi Kemp,

All versions of MS Office can process TIFF files.

Cheers

Most (third party) image editors/viewers support TIFF (Tagged Image File Format).

If you have Windows XP, you can use the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer to view TIFF files.

For information about the Tagged Image File Format, see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagged_Image_File_Format


One such program that can view TIFF files is called XnView.
http://www.xnview.com/


I should note that third party programs (such as XnView in this case) is NOT developed or supported by
Microsoft.


Now if you were asking about MDI (Microsoft Document Imaging) format, then BOTH users WILL need Microsoft
Office 2003.
