The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Copy the image into a temp path and rename it with the .tif extension.
Note that this method only works with a few browsers. Chrome and Firefox will try to download a tiff file rather than instantiate a viewer.

Subject: view ifs image and specify viewer with strpccmd
I have in the past used STRPCCMD to view an image stored in the IFS from a iSeries Access 5250 session, by using a http:// url and let the browser select the viewer based in doc suffix (like .pdf).
However we have an issue where the doc name is "non-standard" like B01291AA.BID (this is IBM Content Manager stuff) and need to tell the browser what viewer to use (it's tif or pdf) and need to view on pc with no Content Manager client.
It is not an option to rename the image file.
Is this possible? Most likely tif and want to use Win native fax viewer in STRPCCMD command.
pdf's would use Adobe Reader.
TIA
Jim Franz
