    Need a TIFF viewer that can handle multiple pages.

    I have a fax-to-email service which delivers files in multi-page tiff format. Ubuntu image viewers only show page 1.

    I found ghfaxviewer, which is apparently a perfect tool for this, but as of Karmic it's no longer in the repos.

    Does anyone know of an alternative? Preferably in a repo somewhere.

    I'm pretty sure Evince opens Multipage tiffs

    Just tested it Evince does opem multipage tiffs (Right click on the tiff - Open With and select Document Viewer)

    Hope this Helps

    Thank you for this!

    Just to state my purpose for this.

    Because I can't find a decent modem that works for Ubuntu,

    I used Windows XP - fax machine to receive faxes and saves to a folder C:\faxes. Then I use AutoMailer (freeware) to poll and send through email the folder C:\faxes, but it's in TIF format.

    So Evince does the job pretty well.
    It's OK, everything we know will become obsolete at some time.
