Black Ice Software is proud to announce support for vector PDF with the TIFF Viewer Pro, TIFF Viewer Pro Browser Plug-In, and TIFF Viewer Pro Chrome / Edge browser extensions! The new TIFF Viewer Pro comes with the ability to open, edit and save any standard PDF document, while preserving the text information and searchability of the PDF documents.

The new version of TIFF Viewer supports advanced PDF features, such as displaying PDF annotations, open password-protected PDF documents, support filling interactive forms, and more!

Companies dealing with a large numbers of interactive PDF forms can take advantage of the latest TIFF Viewer Pro, as users can now fill the forms in Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge browsers, or offline using the TIFF Viewer Pro desktop application!

We at Black Ice Software take your privacy and security seriously, that is why the TIFF Viewer Pro can be configured to open the PDF documents and interactive forms in Flatten Mode, to prevent users from editing, filling, or modifying the PDF documents without approval.

The interactive forms in PDF documents can contain JavaScript, to validate the filled fields. JavaScript can have potentially unwanted actions or security issues, therefore the TIFF Viewer Pro has an option to turn off JavaScript support in PDF documents. This can be used to prevent any unwanted scripts from running.

The new PDF support is available in the TIFF Viewer Pro version! To upgrade your existing Tiff Viewer to the TIFF Viewer Pro version, or for more information about the benefits of the TIFF Viewer Pro, please contact our Sales at impactsales@blackice.com!

Complete MODI Replacement!

With Microsoft Office Document Imaging (MODI) reaching End of Life, it is no longer consider to be HIPAA compliant. The Black Ice Tiff Viewer is capable of viewing, editing and printing scanned/faxed TIFF images and other image types, resulting in an ideal substitute for MODI. When paired with the Black Ice Printer Drivers users can convert any file format to Tiff, PDF and more. The evaluation copy of both solutions is fully functional for 15 days with free priority technical support during your evaluation. Once the demo period is over you may contact our sales team for information on how to obtain a license.
