Hi Bertha,

The best format to upload a certificate from ScotlandsPeople is in TIF format - the original SP format. To obtain the TIF from SP, one method is to change your SP viewing method (temporarily if you want) to "direct download" in your SP profile. Then find this certificate in your viewed images, and select it and download it to your PC.

You should be able to upload that TIF image to the TalkingScot Gallery.

All the best,

AndrewP

Thanks Andrew
Have uploaded to gallery but didn't know how to put it in message on the forum like I've seen others. Need to go to some PC classes I think.
It's actually meant to be in the census forum as part of a query I sent in earlier that David answered.
Will post the info I require on there
Regards
