Status:   

Hi there,=20

I'm having some unusual issues with tiffcp, and I'm wondering if anyone
can help me.

I've been using an old version of tiffcp (not sure which version sorry)
on an old UNIX box, to combine two tiff images, one with an orientation
tag of '3' and another with '4'. It would then produce a two page tiff
image, with the appropriate metadata.=20

As a side note, it was used with the '-c g6' command line option.

Now we've just finished upgrading this machine to a nice new Solaris
box, with tiffcp version 3.8.2. Unfortunately using tiffcp in the same
situation now produces some interesting results.

Instead of maintaining the images' orientation tags, they now both come
out set to 4, which causes the images to display incorrectly.

I've investigated different command line options, but haven't come up
with anything that works.=20

I've tried using the same images on the different versions, and it
certainly must be due to some change in 3.8.2 (or earlier).=20

If anyone can shine any light on this I'd greatly appreciate it. I've
already written a Java alternative, but I'd really like to continue
using tiffcp, as it's been so reliable for so long.

Kind regards,
