You HAVE to set the printer to a Fax Printer, or else you're generating a PostScript file, wich cannot be opened with the previewer.
I use this method in an app that generates and emails around a thousand of these documents a day. The only problem found is that sometimes, people associate the .TIF to some graphic program that does not recognize TIF documents ( thinking it's the graphic's design TIF format ), but besides that minor glitch, this works very good.

Why do programs stop working correctly as soon as you leave the Fox?
