Need a gif viewer for large images >17000 x 9000 pixels
I have painstakingly scanned in a fold-up map of an area lake and put it on my axim as a gif at 96 dpi. Now I need a viewer I can use to scroll around and view it. I can change it to tif if necessary...it is b&w. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Here's a few to try...
Here are a few free programs:

http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=761
http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=62

If neither of these work, you could try creating an HTML document with the image, and use Pocket Internet Explorer (PIE) to view the image.

Hope I helped a little.

I'd recommend converting the document to a PDF or, even better, Repligo format since those viewers ar meant to handle large documents and use good non-lossy compression to keep file size down. I can convert it to Repligo for you since I own the program and you can just download their free viewer.

Thanks for the suggestion and offer. I own Acrobat 6 so let me try that first. The gif is 9 meg so its going to be a bit of a monster I think. I already have the free pdf reader installed. If the resulting pdf file is too large I may get back with you and try the Repligo route.

Thanks again,

If that doesnt work, It would be easy enough to write a program to load the image and allow you to scroll around.

I did have to crop the image...my machine complained about not having enough ram (1GB ram and double 2.8Ghz processors running XP pro). Anyway, I have 'most' of the map I use anyway and the filesize is cut in half. I will say redrawing speed is pathetic, but what can you expect from a handheld? Beats not having it at all.

Thanks for the support.
