With MODI print to the file, like (assuming MODI printer preferences set to TIF output):
repo form your_report to FILE c:\whatever\file_name.tif
It is quite possible that then the file will be opened in the default viewer associated with "tif" files.
To avoid it, do something like:
repo form your_report to FILE c:\whatever\file_name.xxx
rename c:\whatever\file_name.xxx to c:\whatever\file_name.tif
Good Luck
