Select the TIFF file and click the “Open” button. Press the “Control” and “A” keys on the keyboard at the same time, which selects the entire TIFF. Press the “Control” and “C” keys on the keyboard at the same time to copy the TIFF.
3. Open Word 2007. Click the “Microsoft Office” button and select “New,” which opens a separate window. Click “Blank Document” and select “Create” to open a blank document. Press the “Control” and “V” keys on the keyboard at the same time to transfer the material from the scanned letter to Word 2007.
