Landonline Software

You will need to download the following software to use Landonline:

Landonline Print-to-TIFF driver

The Print-to-TIFF driver creates TIFF images from your own application software for supporting Landonline documents. This software removes the need to print and scan your own documents before attaching them to Landonline transactions.

Alert! Before installing any software, we strongly recommend you or your IT support staff or service provider read the complete IT and system requirements for using Landonline to ensure your current IT environment is able to run Landonline.

Non-Landonline software

When planning your investment in software, you also need to consider the best firewall, antivirus and anti-spyware software. These types of software are part of managing risk to your firm along with ensuring that staff follow security-conscious work practises. LINZ does not provide support for non-Landonline software.

PC System Hardware

Your computer hardware must meet the minimum specifications for your chosen Operating system and browser.

Monitor

Landonline displays best if your screen resolution is set to 1024 x 768.

There are some screens that require this setting to display correctly and, as more functionality is added, more screens will fall into this category. If you use lower screen resolutions (e.g. 800 x 600), a scrollbar will appear on the right hand side enabling you to scroll up and down.

For more information, see How to change your screen display settings.
