Microsoft Document Imaging: Another Snapshot format

[david epsom dot com dot au]

Incompatible with snapshot documents and the snapshot viewer of course. And
you have to print to the MDI printer: you can't SendTo. And another secret
proprietary format. But it does mean that MS is never going to add the
snapshot viewer to the default windows installation - and that Word is never
going to produce snapshot documents.

Technically the two formats are very similar, and it looks like anything
that can be done with one format can be done with the other. Only that one
format has been implemented through a printer driver, and the other built
into Access.
