Office 2007 Fax viewer

[JDeVil]

I have configured my Inbox to view the attachments in the preview. This
works generally well.

One problem, multi page tiff documents (faxes recieved) displays the first
page for all pages. Is this correct or do I need to configure differently.

If I view the document in MS Image & Fax viewer then all pages display
correctly

Regards
Jaco de Villiers

I not 100% sure what is meant by MIA. Will this feature be removed from
Outlook 2007 or is there no one capable of answering the question.

I just want to clarify in case I did not come across clear enough. The
question is with regards to the viewing of attachments in the preview pane
and not actual fax functionality. I am sure that the issue will be found in
any tiff images not necessary that of received faxes

Jaco

I believe its a bug in the beta. There is nothing to configure

What Milly meant is that there will be no fax integration with Outlook 2007.
However, as you point out, TIF files should still display properly. How are
you trying to display them and what is your file association for TIF files?
It should be:
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MODI\12.0\MSPVIEW.EXE" "%1"

Hi Russ, below is the file association as requested. Seems exactly the same.
I have CS2 running on the notebook, not sure if that might cause the issue.

I have Outlook configured to preview attachements in side the preview pane
with out the usual prompt. It seems that all the office documents and other
image types load and display correctly. Our MS Small business server
receives faxes and route them via email to my inbox.

I received a 2 page fax, the preview page should the fax with two pages but
displayed the first page for both pages. If i open the fax with MS image fax
viewer then all is well

What happens if you try to open a TIF file instead of preview it?

Never mind. I see you answered that question.
I can reproduce this behavior. Only the first page previews. It's a bug.
