I've been working on a significant update to tiff2ps to correct a number 
of small bugs such as the handling of TIFF files with X and Y resoltuion 
tags but no Resolution Unit tag. I have also rebuilt and revised some 
code that limits the viewport by -W on the output page. I've also 
flagged some incompatible command line options and removed some 
Postscript output that should not be included when the format is 
Encapsulated Postscript, eg the Top binding option and Tumble options 
were allowed previously. I've also added a few new command line options 
to specify a document title and creator other than the default filename 
and "tiff2ps" respectively. I have not changed any of the functions 
handling the generation of postscript for the TIFF image data per se.

I'm looking for testers in the next couple of days to provide feedback 
on their use of this version. Please email me if you can test with your 
own data files and I will send you my current source which is based on 
the 3.9 branch from CVS.  Alternately, if you have unusual TIFF files 
with alpha channels, various compression schemes, and non-standard sizes 
that you can share, please send them to me as well.

Richard Nolde
