The topics below show how you can use the Run Commands tab to automatically open and view created files.
If you enable a conversion profile to automatically open your created file, TIFF Image Printer will auto open the created file when you are creating multipaged output, or the first page of the output series when creating serialized output. This is the same action as when you double click the output file in the File Explorer window to open it. If double-clicking a TIFF file opens in Windows Photos, that is what will happen through the run command.
Beginning with version 12.0.025, additional capabilities have been added to the the Run commands to allow more control over the windows state, waiting for the command to complete and to add improved handing of run command macros used in the command path and parameters field.
This allows us to quickly add the ability to automatically open the created file by using the run command macro $(OutputFilePath) as the Command in the End of Job run command. If you are running an earlier version, the same action is done using the included AutoOpen.bat batch file from the RunCommands folder.
•Using the $(OutputFilePath) Macro (version 12.0.025 and later)
•Using the AutoOpen.bat File (version prior to 12.0.025)
