Hey,

Your issue may be more browser based, in supporting the files. Are you using an <img> tag to load them, or the server control?

A TIFF is a very inefficient image format. It's not much different than a bitmap. There is no compression on it. You should concider using a more accepted image format for web application such as a GIF, JPG or PNG.

its nice from you to tell me that .tiff files are inappropriate.But this files came from fax(2bit .tiff files) and I dont have to convert these files to bitmap because bitmap is rather large in size. And you are wrong when you say .tiff files dont have compression.They do have LZW compression.

Still is anyone who can answer my question about displaying .tiff files with asp.NET

thanks

Hey,

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work... could you post any code?

Ok. Perhaps there is compression on a TIFF. The ones I've seen haven't been very small so I figured there wasn't or that it isn't very good.

The compression issue aside, displaying a TIFF in ASP.NET is no different than displaying any other format. In the end, it comes down to what the client supports. If you are having troubles getting a TIFF to display in your browser, than the problem is probably that your browser doesn't support it. So it has nothing to do with ASP.NET. You'll need to look into the browser problem.
