I tried this program and was surprised to find that it wouldn’t let me save as TIF. It also noly saves the first page in low resolution as a JPG. To do anything more than that, you have to purchase at least the light version. Seems like something might have changed in the licensing since this article was written. One of the annoying pop-ups does say it should save as TIF, but there was no feature for doing this, nor was it an option in the ’save as’ dialog.
Bottom line - this “article” is a nice ad.

Useless, crippled software. Does not work without you ordering the “lite” license. I uninstalled and deleted it immediately. Don’t bother with this junk.
