The image format is TIFF and the pixel distance is specified in the TIFF header.
I understand here "distance" as "resolution". Something like an image in
which the x-dimension of a pixel is 1 metre and the y-dimension of the
pixel is set to be 1.5 metre.
Exactly.
Unfortunately the
only program that checks for the pixel distance is Windows' built in image viewer. In e.g. Adobe
Acrobat you have to specify the pixel distance manually to get a non-distorted image.
So you mean you have to set manually the resolution of x-y if I get it
right.
Yes, but the SEM software has already a solution for this, but one has to know
this option.
But now enough off-topic things ;-).
Just for the records: under Linux you have for example imagemagick (a
"great", in number and in abilities, collection of image manipulation
tools).
LyX is using Imagemagick whenever you insert an image to your LyX document, also on MAC and Windows.
And no, Imagemagick does not correctly hanlde my special TIFF files, but as I know the special SEM
option that's no more a problem.
