Associating Image
Formats with
Applications
Notes:
• When using the "Text" profiles for scanning documents, make sure
that the viewing tool supports multipage CCITT G.4-compressed TIFF;
the TIFF format is the most common standard for imaging and
archiving of scanned documents. If your application does not support
multipage documents, you can create a profile that generates single
page documents, or scan each page as a separate job.
• When scanning pictures for web publishing, create a JPEG file using
either the "Color low" or "Color high" profiles. The image files gener-
ated by these profiles are supported by almost all existing image edi-
tors and Web browsers.
• The AXIS 7000/FX is compatible with the majority of today's popular
tools. However, if you find a tool that is not supported by the AXIS
7000/FX, we would like to know about it. For information on how to
contact us see "Preface" on page 3.
• For further information, see the Axis web site at http://www.axis.com
Applications are typically associated with a file format automatically
during the installation procedure. If not, we recommend that you
manually associate your image applications with the supported image
file formats, so that double-clicking on an image icon launches the
appropriate application.
Follow the instructions below to associate an application with a
specific file format in Windows 95 and NT:
1. In Windows Explorer, click the View menu, click Options, and
then click the File Types tab.
2. To create a new file type, click New Type. To modify the settings for
an existing file type, select the type, and then click Edit.

associated with this type of file.
