MDI (Microsoft office Document Imaging) is a powerful application for multipage images scanning.
But it works for XP only.After XP is not longer supported by Microsoft, Microsoft has an utility application called MDI to TIFF Converter to solve this problem.

However the supported operating Systems for this utility are:
Windows 7, Windows Server 2003 R2 (32-Bit x86), Windows Server 2003 R2 x64 editions, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Vista Service Pack 1, Windows XP Service Pack 3… But not WINDOWS 10 !!!Some questions are posted on NET forums or some applications are advertised as MDI-to-TIF converter ready to download for free , but be careful about the unexpected consequence after you click download label !

I have found a solution to solve this problem.
1. Select Microsoft Office Document Imaging menu.
2. Open the file of MDI format
Left column is page preview column. You can select any page to edit
2. Open the file of MDI format
Left column is page preview column. You can select any page to edit
3. select Page (on top of task bar) then Select ALL Pages (yellow Highlight)
- Save Pages As a name under TIF format. Remember TIF not MDI. Now you are able to open this multipages file with any graphic software supporting multipage images such as Infanview (free) even in windows 10.
One more thing is funny: the multipage Image file in XP can be saved both under MDI or TIF, by using function Save As, but we are unable to open it in windows 7 or Windows 10. The process takes you to Microsoft store to purchase their product !
