How too save multi page reports as .tif?

[zilla]

It seems like I had this one figured out at one time but now I don't see it. How do I save a multi page report, (the plots) as a .tif file?

[Otmar]

I don't think that TIF files allow for multiple pages. There are two things we can try:

1. Print multiple DIAdem pages to one page to create a TIF file.
2. Automatically print each DIAdem page to a separate TIF file using a SCRIPT.

Please let me know if one of these solutions would help you and I'll try and figure it out and post a solution for you.

The best solution for me would be to be able to
Print/Save multiple DIAdem work sheets to single multi page TIF file.

I would appreciate any help with this. None of the other software I have can create multi page TIF files. Each report for each test I will be running will be 30-40 sheets. I have 20 tests coming due soon, to save images of the reports in a single, multi page TIF file would be a great help.

Zilla,

Multipage TIFs are not supported as an option for exporting reports in DIAdem. You can create a script that saves one TIF file for each report or use the HTML report to combine them into one page. Combining multiple TIF files into a single multipage TIF is not a function that is available in DIAdem. I can help you with one of the two options that Otmar suggested earlier if you are interested. Please be sure to include which option interests you in your response.

Thanks, I have a script that saves one TIF for each sheet of a multipage report and have tried the HTML report but was hoping Otmar could come up with a way to save my multipage report as a single TIF file.

<1. Print multiple DIAdem pages to one page to create a TIF file.>

Saddly it looks like I will be printing 30+ sheets for each test and then having them scanned into a single TIF.

Dear DIAdem user,

unfortunately DIAdem can't save multi page TIFF files directly but there is a solution using VBScript.

The attached script solves the problem if your system fulfills the following system requirements:
Operating System: Windows XP with SP1
Installed "Windows Image Acquisition Library v2.0" (You can download this library from the Microsoft Download Center.)

The script first saves TIFF files from all lyout sheets in a loop. After that, one multi page TIFF file is created from all single page TIFF files by using the Windows Image Acquisition Library.

I hope this will help you!
