Re: Quicktime & TIFF (LZW) decompressor needed to see this picture

 From this...

http://www.google.com/search?q=+Quicktime++TIFF+%28LZW%29+decompressor
+are+needed+to+see+this+picture&btnG=Search

I got this page...

http://www.thrrrust.com/~pclark/blog/2004/12/quicktime-and-tiff-lzw-
decompressor.html

...which has a lot of discussion about the issue. A couple of
tidbits from that discussion:

''The problem is in HOW the image is inserted into Powerpoint. Any
image that is inserted using the menu option "Insert - Picture - From
File" will work on BOTH platforms. If you copy from the Mac OS X app
"Preview", for example, and then paste into Powerpoint, the image
will appear in Powerpoint, but will NOT be viewable on PC's. I think
the Preview application uses the TIFF LZW decompressor, and while
Powerpoint on Mac must be able to display this, it cannot on PCs. ''

and:

''A Solution on the Windows-Side without need of a Mac:
1) Save PPT as Webpage
2) Search for pcz-Files
3) unpack pcz-Files (for instance with Total Commander)
4) extract PICT-Files from pcz
5) convert PICT-Files into JPG or something else (For instance with
IrfanView)
6) reinsert into PPT''

Good luck!
