Is there a way to display a TIFF file on an interface?

I've looked into a!documentViewerField, a!imageField (with a!documentImage), and a!richTextImage (with a!documentImage) and tried to display the contents of a TIFF file with no success.

Does anyone know how to display a TIFF file on an interface?

Thanks

Hi, as far as I know TIFF images won't  display properly in Appian, if you use a!documentViewerField it downloads the file. I would suggest you to create an Appian support ticket to verify this functionality.

There is a plugin to convert TIFF to PDF. That would then display in the documentViewerField.

I'm aware of that but we need a way to display TIFF, not a PDF.

Is there some particular reason you can't convert to PDF first, if doing so would allow you to satisfy the requirement?
