1) What do you use Advanced TIFF Editor Plus for? How does it
help you?
We are publishing every year a large number of treaties in image
format (scanned).
All these tiff images have to be processed, cropped, cleaned,
annotated, etc.
Advanced TIFF Editor is an essential tool for this process.
2) What do you consider to be the most interesting feature of
the program?
Auto crop, very good noise removal. All annotation features and
page manipulations are very useful too.

I use it in conjunction with two music programs (SmartScore and
Finale). I use Advanced TIFF Editor Plus (ATEP) to scan & then clean
up sheet music images. SmartScore also has this feature, but (ATEP)
is easier and does a better job. Next Smart Score "recognizes",
usually imperfectly, the Tiff Image as music. Finally I import the
"recognized" file into Finale. Here I make sure that all of the
notes, pitch, timing etc. are correct. I can then assign various
voices to the parts: Clarinet for the melody, saxophone for harmony
etc. Arrange it, transpose it, change the tempo. etc.
The most interesting feature: The ease with which I can scan and
cleanup the image.

Used mainly for Scanned Drawings / to update & clean up / archive
The most interesting feature: Adding Lines / text

I will be using your program primarily to catalogue our former
Pastor's notes.He is now retired and having worked assisting him for
almost 40 years I am not far behind.
Some are hand written these I will just clean up and compile in
PDF's. These are mostly for sentimental purposes. Probably no one
will ever look at them but it seems a shame to just throw them away.
Some are notes he used to teach our young ministers class which I am
going to try put into some sort of usable format in hopes that those
following in his steps will find a use for them.
I used this program on my home computer back when it still belonged
to Kodak and then a later version of this program to clean up dirty
faxes. Sometimes the faxes came in so bad you could hardly read them
for all the "noise" (I think that is the proper terminology). Part
of my job was to pretty them up before I passed them on. So you
would receive the fax, scan it, clean it and then print it. (does
anyone still use faxes anymore?)

I use the software to clean musical scores.
The most interesting feature are erasing, removing noise, rotating,
resizing.

> What do you use Advanced TIFF Editor Plus for? How does it
help you?
I use it for scanning journal articles and essays from books;
it's the greatest thing I know of for producing clean copies from
bound materials without the shadow of the gutter, mess in the
borders, and so forth. Even though I use Adobe Acrobat Pro a lot, I
still prefer TIFF editor for bound work.
> 3) Where did you first hear/read about Advanced TIFF Editor
Plus?
Learned of it from Rob Bradshaw, who scans thousands of articles
for his biblical and theological research sites, which have their
main portal here --

I use the program to scan and cleanup piano sheet music. Run it
through a music recognition program (Smartscore) , then playback,
edit, & Print through a music notation program Finale.
The most interesting feature: The ease in scanning and cleanup
including skew correction.
Ajay Thomas
I use it:
a. To view and annotate Invoices and PO's
b. To Crop and Edit portions of Images
c. Convert Images to Editable Text in Batch Mode
d. To convert images to different formats
Overall very useful and good value for money kind of
Application/GUI. Also your Support Guy V*** rocks !
Overall well done GUI and good selection of Tools and features.
Rod Fenwick
I use it mainly for tidying up scanned sheet music. I play guitar
for a choir and am often handed very old, tatty sheet music, often
in the wrong key. I scan it, tidy up the scanned image with TIFF
Edit then feed that “clean” image into the music OCR program.
Clint
Strain
I have found your software to be extremely valuable in modifying
PDF files.
Unlike other editing software that I have tried, Advanced TIFF
Editor Plus gives me the ability to add/modify text for any font on
my system as well as rotate the text to any desired angle. I
primarily use it to modify engineering design drawings that will
then be inserted into AutoCAD drawings.
Christina
Degens-Kupp
I am using the program to clean music scores for archiving purposes,
so the ability to deskew images without getting a staircase effect
is very important. The most interesting feature is being able to
manipulate images.
Richard
Cheatham
I am most impressed by your program and very much enjoy using it. I
am in the middle of digitizing my library of over a thousand
electronic service manuals that I have accumulated over the past
thirty-five years. This project would not be feasible without
Advanced TIFF Editor!
John Emhof
1) What do you use Advanced TIFF Editor Plus for? How does it help
you?
We are a scanning service bureau and need to edit and quality
control some jobs that produce TIFF output.
2) What do you consider to be the most interesting feature of
the program?
Robust editing options!
Gordon

I am an AutoCAD technician/operator and I am as-building drawings
for a major natural gas company and many of the drawing files I work
with are scanned images of some very old drawings. The images are
skewed and often quite "dirty". Advanced TIFF Editor works great for
doing the clean-up work. It does almost every thing that Raster
Design does at a fraction of the cost. I am impressed with the
program and love working with it.
Richard H.
Cheatham
My name is Richard H. Cheatham and I want to thank you for adding
the printing collation feature to “Advanced TIFF Editor”. My wife is
a school teacher and she scans/collates/prints a lot of documents
for her various classes. I am also in the process of archiving a
very large number (> 15,000) of electronic service manuals. I am a
retired IT manager who specialized in the design, implementation and
management of enterprise imaging systems. Having had over fifteen
years of experience with different software packages dealing with
the acquisition, indexing, routing/work flow and archiving of
millions of documents (my most recent system had ~ 42,000,000
documents in it when I retired), I have to tell you that yours is
the most comprehensive set of image acquisition and editing tools
that I have ever seen, particularly under one roof.
Inasmuch as I have almost always had software given to me, having
been “in the business”, I have to tell you that I am honored to pay
for your product because it is just that damned good. My next act
after sending this e-mail to you will be to purchase you program.
Please keep up the good work and know that I will be touting your
program to a number of integrators that I have worked with.
Hopefully, they will want to get together with you to license all,
or part, of your program to be a part of a very robust front-end for
their commercial imaging solutions. If I can be of any service or
help to you regarding future upgrades and features, please do not
hesitate to ask.
Thank you for all of your great work!!

TIFF has been a key format for graphics professionals for years
and is still widely used for storing high-quality graphics in a
variety of industries. If you use TIFF a lot, a fast and functional
tool optimized for this format is a must-have asset in your software
collection!
Advanced TIFF Editor is a powerful TIFF viewing, editing and
conversion tool featuring dozens of handy functions and an interface
you’ll learn to use in minutes! The software supports FAX, TIF
(TIFF), PDF, DCX, EPS, PS, AI, GIF, JBIG and DICOM files and allows
you to view, edit, print, draw and convert images in all of these
formats. The program fully supports multi-page files, so you will
have absolutely no problems editing, merging and splitting them.
Apart from basic image manipulation functions, the software offers a
number of automatic image processing tools that considerably
facilitate image touch up operations, allow users to view Wand and
Kodak image annotations, process images in batches and even work
with fax images with different horizontal and vertical DPI values.
Advanced TIFF Editor cross-converts images of all supported types
and offers OCR (optical text recognition) capabilities, an ability
to send images directly to any available printer and even fax images
by sending them to a fax type printer. The program is fully
compatible with all major versions of the Windows operating system,
including 9x/Me/NT/2K/XP and Vista.
If you deal with TIFF files on a daily basis and don’t want to
spend a fortune on expensive and cumbersome pro-level commercial
editors, make sure to give Advanced TIFF Editor a good try — it may
well turn out to be everything you need for TIFF processing and
conversion to other formats!

I make Tif files at year end for all my financial
documents such as broker statements, bank statements, federal and
state tax coies, and credit card statements. The .Tif file format is
great for this purpose because you can store a number of pages
within one .Tif file. For example, if I have 12 monthly statements
of 4 pages each I can get all 48 pages in one .Tif file.
I use another program (MrBills) to create the .Tif files
using a scanner with an automatic document feeder. I usually feed
the bottom edges of the source documents into the scanner to prevent
jams since the top edges are usually bent from usage with minor
tears caused by removing the staples.
The major problem in this process is the automatic document
feeder (the scanner is only 4 months old) which ofter time skips
pages which I can read again and append to the end of the .Tif file.
When I complete this process I use Advanced TIFF Editor User
Review to perform the final edit which includes:
1) Rotating pages from bottom to top, since I feed them from the
bottom edge.
2) Moving pages to get them in the proper page order, for any
appended pages that were skipped on the first pass.
3) Deleting blank pages, when the source documents are printed on
both sides and the last page of a monthly statement is blank.
Advanced TIFF Editor User Review was the only product I found
that would perform the above functions, plus a lot of other useful
functions I am just beginning to explore. In addition, the tech
support is great and extremely prompt. All in all I highly recommend
this excellent product to anybody you creates a lot of .Tif
documents. It really saves considerable time when you don't have to
constantly process the same batch of document to get a complete scan
without skipped pages or jams.

Advanced TIFF Editor is a relatively small and very cost
effective and efficient program for viewing and editing fax and TIFF
files.
Before I came across this program I was using regular and
expensive photo imaging software which did the job but was
cumbersome and difficult to use.
Advanced TIFF Editor program has unique and time saving
features such as de-skewing, noise and random pixel removal
(despeckle) and autocropping. Editing tools permit erasing, text
addition/deletion, picture pasting etc and there are graphics
editing features normally found in typical graphics software such as
image resizing, filters, convert to negative etc etc.
Advanced TIFF Editor is easy to work with and the thumbnail
layout of a multipage TIFF file makes it very easy to review, select
and work on individual pages. I had one or two small problems with
the program and the developers were very quick to respond and fix
them - customer support is excellent.
John van
den Bogert
I use Advanced Tiff Editor to view and manipulate
all Adobe files, eps, ai pdf
There isn't a other program for this price to do this.
Fred
Thompson
This is a useful program. We are a land surveying office. We are
currently in the process of scanning 30+ years of property plats,
and the software that came with the scanner is not really suited for
what we need to do.
Kevin
Mullen
I use Advanced TIFF Editor for touching up paper documents that I
have fed into my scanner. It allows me to deskew, crop bits of the
edge, despeckle, remove extraneous information such as
advertisements from magazine articles, and generally get the image
looking good, rather than like a crumpled photocopy.
Ken
Colburn
I use the program on newspaper scans, I have thousands of them!
The program is very easy to use, I can crop, straighten and remove
unwanted pixels
For my purposes it's perfect
Aaron
Jagt
I'd like to say thank you for creating the advanced tiff editor,
it's by far the best tiff software of any that I have tried.
Charles
Caudle
I am using scanned sheet music (multi-page tif files) to be
recognized by electronic music programs. Unfortunately, some of the
various things on the page contribute to problems when read by the
electronic music software. I have been searching for an image editor
that would let me easily erase things on a multi-page tiff file. I
first looked at Corel Paintshop and Adobe Photoshop Elements, and if
they can edit multi-page tif files, they are doing a fine job of
hiding it. After searching for multipage tif editor on google, I
found your program. After trying the demo, it is perfect for the
job. Thanks very much!

Advanced TIFF Editor?
Albert
Deets
Before answering your questions I want to say that I had several
questions answered by your technical staff. The representative I
dealt with was Viacheslav Burlakov. He had the requisite patience
and technical expertise. It was the information that he provided
that made me decide to purchase Advanced TIFF Editor Plus.
1) What do you use Advanced TIFF Editor Plus for? How does it
help you?
I have a music notation program. It has an import feature. The
process begins with a piece of scanned sheet music, which is then
"recognized" as music. The "recognized" piece is then imported into
the notation program for cleanup, editing, and arranging.
I like the image editing features. The cleaner the TIFF image the
less error correction I have to do at the other end. Frequently the
initial scans need cleanup around the edges. I start with a vertical
block delete to clear the left edge up to the musical score. The
detail work around the left edge (clefs and key signatures) usually
takes longer. Where the scan is too dirty in and around the
treble/bass clefs and key signature I do another vertical block
delete to cut out the dirty section. Rather than free hand new ones,
I discovered that Advanced TIFF Editor will let me copy a clean
clef/signature anywhere else in the piece, paste and drag it into
position where the dirty one was. The "recognition" program was
getting way too creative with my previous scans.
2) What do you consider to be the most interesting feature of
the program?
For me it is the image editing features and ability to use music
fonts imported into windows. I am going to experiment with pasting
in Treble Clefs etc. from a Font character set.
Bill Sax
1) What do you use Advanced TIFF Editor for? How does it help
you?
I send and receive faxes on an old (slow) XP computer that's a print
server, for a network printer, and also receives faxes, which leaves
my real computer available to pick up and leave without having to
disconnect the printer. I don't receive or send a lot of faxes but I
need a good software package when I do. I've always used the old
Kodak imaging software (Windows 95?) to read and edit those files. I
learned to make it work in every version of Windows up
until 7.
When I need to make changes to a PDF document, I will print it to
the Windows fax and then view, edit and save the TIFF file without
sending it. I then use a PDF print driver (Fine Print) that I print
the file to, which works pretty well while maintaining a decent
enough quality. If I need to refax the revised document, there is no
real loss in quality. The neat TIFF printer than came with you
program will shortcut the process of creating the TIFF file in the
first place.
2) What do you consider to be the most interesting feature of
the program?
The TIFF printer to create a TIFF file from any document. I also
like the crop feature. With Kodak Imaging, I could change the size
of the page and it would crop the document. I was working on how
Multi-Page TIFF Editor could easily do that when I decided to try
your product and discovered the crop feature. It worked easier than
Kodak Imaging and was another one of the deciding factors in buying
your product.
3) Where did you first hear/read about Advanced TIFF Editor?
Google and all the hits that mentioned your product. It really only
had hits for your product and Multi-Page TIFF Editor when I searched
for a TIFF Editor. As noted, your product seems to have had more
features.
4) What abilities in your opinion should be added or improved
in it?
It seems to have all the features of Kodak Imaging . I will see
how all that works for me in the long run.
Thanks for making what seems, with the little tests I've given
it, a fairly simple and inexpensive (I wasted a lot of time looking
for a "free" product or making what was already in the Windows 7
toolbox work for me) TIFF editor.
David Rabiner
1. I use Advanced TIFF editor primarily for viewing scanned
documents. It helps me eliminate storing paper.
2. The most interesting feature is the one I describe above -
reordering pages. I also like that I can view an entire folder
easily.
Dennis Price
1) I use it to modify engineering drawings in tiff format.
It helps by allowing me to make required changes.
2) The ability to erase entities from tiff drawings and to add
lines, shapes, and text to drawings.
Juan Carlos
Isamu
To improve scanned documents to include in my reports:
a) Receipts for expenses reports (normally including several
currencies)
b) Drawings/photos to include in my services reports.
Aida Rivera
1) What do you use Advanced TIFF Editor for? How does it help
you?
I'm a medical programmer and biller which in my billing practice,
download reports from an Electronic Records program through the
internet. The images are multipage TIFF files and need to remove a
line at the end of each report where the doctor's signature goes and
sometimes this line extends to another extra page, so I don't have
to sign each and every report, which is not necessary, before
attaching them to manual claims and sending to insurance companies.
2) What do you consider to be the most interesting feature of
the program?
Being able to Just go to the last page, select the text to be
removed and press delete, the original file is copied as a backup
when I save the new one, and print the report, is so easy!
3) Where did you first hear/read about Advanced TIFF Editor?
Through the internet, practically downloaded and tried every
program but they didn't work with multipage TIFF files or were
difficult to just select and delete the text I wanted, some of them
even though deleted the text, when printed it the "deleted" text
even though I don't see it on the screen, somehow remained on the
page, or were really buggy and erased pages by themselves, so I had
to go back and re-download the files. Advanced TIFF Editor works
perfectly!
Wanda van Wyk
1) I use it to open and save faxes.
2) The fact that you can only save certain pages of a fax.
David L. Scott
We are a non-profit medical clinic that provides free health care to
people who can't afford to see a doctor. We have recently
implemented an Electronic Health Record system and have had all of
our "Paper Charts" scanned electronically and we use your product to
"Extract" specific pages in the charts so that we can import them
into the new EHR system.
Mitch Berger
First of all, I just want to say congratulations on developing a
BRILLIANT program. I love it, and I use it every day.
1) What do you use Advanced TIFF Editor for? How does it help
you?
I'm a teacher - I use the editor to scan in, and then edit my
worksheets before I submit them to my classes.
2) What do you consider to be the most interesting feature of
the program?
I love pretty much everything. The noise reduction and auto-crop
are probably the most interesting features that I use a lot.
3) Where did you first hear/read about Advanced TIFF Editor?
I searched the Net for months to find a decent Tiff editor to
replace the old MS Kodak viewer- and I couldn't find ANYTHING. I was
thrilled to eventually stumble across your product.
Gerrit
Wielenga
1) We use it for editing old scanned electric schematics.
2) Simply adding tekst in all Fonts and height and adding lines,
circles etc. , deskew, remove noise.
Guillermo
Maduro
1) I use Advanced TIFF Editor mostly to check the general
appearance of outgoing faxes.
2) The program contains many interesting features which frankly,
I’m still not too familiar with, but to me one of the most useful is
being able to save faxes in a specific file. This was not possible
in my Windows XP OS, where there was no way of locating any fax
files.
Tony
Mastroddi
1) I use the program for faxes.
2) The most interesting features are the ability to view numerous
thumbnails at one time, plus being able to Cut and Paste sections
and insert new text.
Gordon
Brandly
1) I use it to clean up various documents I scan; sometimes for
OCRing, sometimes I just store them as plain scanned TIFFs as a
backup for my paper copies. Advanced TIFF Editor is the only editor
I've found that can conveniently edit multipage TIFF files.
2) The most _important_ feature for me is the ability to easily crop
pages, since my scans usually have dark marks around the edges of
pages that I want to get rid of. (I also use cropping to get rid of
advertisements in magazine articles I scan.) I also really like the
antialiased view of zoomed-out pages; it makes them much easier to
read.
Ahmad
Gabarin
1) I am a professor doing research and I use CD’s containing images
of manuscripts’ pages. Some of the images in the CD’s are TIFF. Some
are old-style JPEG compression. The Microsoft does not help in such
cases and the images do not show. Each CD contains hundreds of
images. I tried several TIFF readers but they were un-satisfactory.
Your software solved the problem. I thank you.
2) In addition to the above I was pleased to see all the images
displayed in thumbnails and I can move between them and print
whatever images I need to print. My experience with this viewer is
very short. I have just started to use it. But I think that it is a
great program.
Aner
Selamovic
1) Mostly for editing text in TIFF format.
2) Very simple erase/write function that looks like you
put a stamp on a paper, which is very useful and interesting. :)
Tammy
Rice
1) Rotating and cleaning up scanned tiff files.
2) google searches after we upgrade to Vista and I could no longer
edit tiffs
Aaron
Shori
1) For editing Invoice images for OCR testing.
2) The most interesting features are the ease of modifying the text
on the images and the ability to preserve the TIFF format
compression.
Murray
Marien
1) Information Services Corporation (isc.ca) uses TIFF as the file
format for their documents.
I use their services so it helps to have TIFF editor. I also use
Microsoft Office Document Imaging for viewing but printing is a
problem.
2) Printing a selection of the image. You must have been thinking of
me when you added that feature.
