I'm using a free product called CutePDF, at
http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp
along with Adobe Acrobat 6.0 (the free reader version).
Using WinXP, I am able to 'print' several .tif files from 'Windows picture and
fax viewer' (part of
WinXP) into a single .pdf file, then use the Acrobat snapshot tool to get a
portion of an image onto
the clipboard, then paste it into a MS-Word document.

Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Question for the group... and a thank you.
One thing I could use some help on...
Is there a software package that can turn a TIFF file into
a PDF that can be cut and pasted from?
eFax shows up as a TIFF format file, and nothing I have
right now will take TIFF and make it into a file that I can
cut and paste from.
I've been offered a bunch of info that could appear up on
repeater-builder, but my sources prefer to fax the stuff to
me, and to quote my grandfather, who was a rural MD,
you don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
I have no interest in retyping everything. The OCR program
that I have does not go a good job on the printed faxes I have
(fax comes in at 200dpi).
There is no rush on this as I'm going to be joining the family
for Christmas and will essentially off-line for a week (the in-box
will probably have a thousand messages to go through...).
I may or may not be able to devote time to access email
while away from home.
Lastly, I'd like to thank all the members of this group for all
the support over the last year. You all have been great.
Merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, or whatever seasons
greetings are appropriate.
Mike WA6ILQ
