Images
I have a paper document that is scanned via a printer, its scans as PDF but once this image goes into our image database the file type is converted to *.MAG, i am unable to open MAG in PDF or Image viewers. MAG is the file type that this system uses, the system is called Fortis designed i think by Westbrook.
Has anyone had experience in MAG or know what may open it ?

Thanks

nice app but also does not open the file, i have done some more checking and MAG in this application is a code wrapper, it wraps up code, so normally when i double click the file it only opens in the native Fortis database file viewer so in this case i dont believe that MAG is an image type
ill accept for you though as you have helped
