Title: Why are images not being displayed in the html browser application?
Post by: fpalmasani on December 20, 2016, 01:43:37 PM
Some image formats are not supported by all browsers.

For reference to image formats and the browsers that support them:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_web_browsers#cite_note-TIFF-220


To display all images you can:

1) Set driver options to return specific image formats.

   Not all scanners support different image formats.

   For all driver options available for a scanner using Ranger version 4 and up, see the driver options INI file located at:
        C:\ProgramData\Silver Bullet Technology\Ranger\Scanner Plug-ins\[Scanner Name]

   For all driver options available for a scanner using Ranger version 2, see the INI file located at:
        C:\ProgramData\Silver Bullet Technology\Ranger\[Scanner Name]

2) Convert all images returned to the app from Ranger to a supported image type.

Note: If you are using a SmartSource scanner and your grayscale JPEG formatted images
are still not displaying, it is likely that you are configured to receive TIFF wrapped JPEG (the default).

See:

Why are my grayscale images JPEG wrapped in a TIFF header?
