On Linux tiff files can be opened by any viewer, once the file is actually downloaded. Have you tried saving the .tiff file first somewhere and then open it with a viewer? I just checked: .tiff files are correctly served by Invenio with the image/tiff mimetype. So it's actually up to Internet Explorer to open them correctly. There is not much that Invenio can do in that sense. I guess you should rather address this specific question to the AlternaTIFF support, since they claim you should be able to view .tiff files in IE, having their plugin installed. Maybe you have not authorized the ActiveX control? <http://www.alternatiff.com/faq.html#ie> Cheers, Samuele -- Samuele Kaplun Invenio Developer ** <http://invenio-software.org/>
