IDEA: SuperDuperRoboPrinter

<< < (8/12) > >>

. . but unfortunately with tiffs - they get printed to fullpage size, regardless of the actual size of the image (I havent tested any other image files but presume it's the same)

Associate Tiffs to mspaint, they print actual size then. 

I'm looking to see if there is a way I can get it to do it with the image printer, no luck yet..

... If I remove tiff extension from the list to print with windows image viewer, the file simply opens in the viewer and nothing more happens ...

unfortunately this still the case.

Gotta say here that my (image) file associations have often been problematic (I suspect Dopus8 complicates things but not sure) - now I cant seem to get the PAint association to stick. Photoshop does work as default programme (i.e. it opens the file) but with that set as default, your app still opens the file in Windows Viewer (with no further action).

Will have another look later today, thanks for the help!

tomos:
I seem to have sorted out my file association problems. Double click a tiff or tif file now opens in paint.

Unfortunately SuperDuperRoboPrinter (can I call it SDRP from now on?!) still doesnt work for tiffs.

* Open SDRP. Remove .tiff from the list of extensions.*
* First attempt with just one tiff file in the monitored folder, nothing happens.
* Second attempt, it opens again in the windows viewer.
This probably related:
I notice that removing the extension from the list of extensions doenst stick - if I click "save settings" and reopen SDRP, .tiff is there again. Ironically though the tiff files I have - they have a .tif extension (just one 'f'). I dont know could that be a factor - I dont think so but..

awopbamboo:
Yes, .tiff and .tif will be different, so both need to be there or not there.

I know the list of file extensions are not saved, I need to add that!  :D

I want to tidy up a bit anyway, I'll do a bit more testing with different file types etc but so far, they have all worked for me.  BTW, are you using Vista or XP?

tomos:
XP home SP2 but otherwise uptodate

As I said above, I have had problems before with file association which I suspect are related to Directory Opus (version 8 ) which replaces Windows Explorer on my machine. (Explorer still runs but Dopus intercepts calls to Explorer and replaces it then - this shouldn't effect SDRP (?), but I wouldn't know!)
