SOLVED Downloaded Tiff Files from Library cant open them.

[Nurgle2024]

Hi all,

I was browsing Australians National Library, and downloaded some early Realestate Posters in Tiff Format, but the Icons are Generic and theyr only open in Texedit and say they are tiff, but Photoshop wont open them.

what will Convert them to Tiff.? (M1 iMac sequoia.)

Regards, Sandy

That looks like an .xml file.
The Delivery Manager Servlet- is probably a reference to a Java Servlet for managing document delivery.

still leaves me with the problem, that my photoshop 2025 wont open them.

As I understand it the DeliveryManagerServlet is a java servlet for displaying the .tiff image in a browser, and therefore isn't a .tiff file itself.

I don't think it would be an easy task, the item you have downloaded is not the image file but a means of displaying the image in a browser. You really need to download the image file.
