Informatik Image Driver ( TIFF printer driver ) is a raster driver that creates TIFF and PDF files from any Windows application. It works like a standard printer driver. Simply send the Microsoft Word, PDF, Excel, text, etc. document to the TIFF driver (from the Print menu) and an industry-standard compressed multi-page TIFF or PDF file, or serialized single-page TIFF files are created. With an optional addon formatting program you can also create JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, etc. and many different TIFF compressions (including TIFF Class F Dialogic and LZW), text annotations (with merge fields and placeholders), watermarks and other image manipulation.

The driver can be used to convert proprietary graphics formats; any file, any format that can be printed in Windows can be converted to a graphic file. Batch processing is possible in many cases with OLE Automation or with your own application. The driver is network supported.

The program file is less than 500k; it installs in less than 10 seconds and the performance is 3-4 times faster than similar TIFF drivers. Informatik Image Driver is a native program; TIFF files are created directly from the datastream, not via an indirect graphics conversion, hence the remarkable performance and high system reliability. The TIFF output files have a comlete tag set and are format compliant with the strictest industry standards.
