.mdi Files

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel

I have some .mdi files (generated at work with some lab software). They seem to open okay on my work PC. Is there any way that I can get Office 2008 and a MAC to recognize / open these?

No, .mdi is a Windows-only format exclusive to the Microsoft Document
Imaging program... Even other Windows apps can't read or create them.

If you can get them into a Windows box open them in MDI & then Save As TIFF
to get a format that can be opened by graphics apps or inserted into other
documents as a picture. TIFF files are viable on either platform.
