Talk:Microsoft Document Imaging Format

Microsoft Document Imaging does appear to allow images to be saved as a TIFF. This appears all right for black-and-white and grey-scale images. However for coloured images, the TIFF does not appear to be a standard TIFF, as it could not be recognised by other software that would normally open a TIFF image. 203.120.68.71 (talk) 21:40, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Documents to PDF
1. I have a letter, which I want to convert to PDF. The problem is that when I use Microsoft Document Imaging etc... it scans as a picture and no OCR is performed.

What is the solution? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.150.46 (talk) 19:21, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Different between both programs
In Office there are two programs in the Start Menu (under Tools) :-

Microsoft Office Document Imaging Microsoft Office Document Scanning

What is the difference. I have looked on the web, but explanations are bad..... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.150.46 (talk) 19:22, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Changing pen sizes
Background: I needed to mark up .pdf mechanical drawings - highlight, type, erase etc. Process: Save .pdf as .mdi and open. Modify as necessary. Obstacle: Couldn't erase large areas efficiently because white pen size was limited in height. Workaround: Edit registry key located at [HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-436374069-484763869-839522115-1004\Software\Microsoft\MSPaper 11.0\Pens\Writing\Pen4], specifically "Height"=dword:0018e700. Change from hex to decimal when editing and increase value in multiples format eg: Pen4 "Height" is 413000 dec by default. Change to 816000 dec or 1632000 dec and this will increase the pen tip size accordingly. Danobegood —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.48.192.130 (talk) 17:37, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
