Windows can't read TIFF from Mac Word
Description: Document created by Mac Word that includes Graphic Image. I can read it on another Mac, but when I try to read it with Word on Windows, it says, "QuickTimeTM and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture.
Resolution: Open document on your Mac and cut the drawing out, and place it back in as JPEG or BMP.
In the future use only graphic formats that Word supports on both platforms such as JPEG or BMP.
Cause: The problem is not with Quicktime - the problem is that Word on the Mac that uses Quicktime for graphics import, which allows it to support many formats that Word on Windows does not.
