Hi! I posted a message some time ago but I got no reply.
This is what I got with netpbm library 9.20 : [pliszka@snark hollik-fortsch]$ tifftopnm hollik-fortsch.165.tiff > /dev/null tifftopnm: writing PBM file tifftopnm: invalid value for fillorder: 0 The reason: scanimage puts wrong value (0 while should be 1 or 2) in fillorder .tiff field. Fix: --- orig/stiff.c Sat Dec 8 12:51:23 2001 +++ stiff.c Sat Dec 8 12:52:33 2001 @@ -212,6 +212,8 @@ add_ifd_entry (ifd, 259, IFDE_TYP_SHORT, 1, 1); /* photometric interpretation */ add_ifd_entry (ifd, 262, IFDE_TYP_SHORT, 1, 0); + /* byte fill order */ + add_ifd_entry (ifd, 266, IFDE_TYP_SHORT, 1, 1); /* strip offset */ add_ifd_entry (ifd, 273, IFDE_TYP_LONG, 1, strip_offset); /* orientation */ Coul someone apply it? Thanks for a great tool! Best Regards, Jacek P.S. Why don't you use libtiff ?
