16 Bit Tiff Images Display Bug?

Question 1:
Is there a problem with Aperture 2.0 displaying 100 + mb 16 bit tiff images generated by a film scanner (nikon coolscan 4000 ed)? I am having trouble with my library that I migrated from Aperture 1.5. All of my images were working fine in Aperture 1.5 (and previously in iPhoto as far back as 2003). In Aperture 2.0 I am getting scrambled images and some images that read unsupported file format. The problem is sporadic. It effects some images and not others. Sometime images display correctly and sometime they become scrambled and unsupported, and then back again.
There is no trouble with the images themselves. I export them to CS3 with no distortion or trouble. The problem seems to be in Aperture 2.0.
I have re-built the library, tried migrating images, changed the color profile.... I think I have exhausted every trick I can manage from a user vantage point. The images work fine when converted to 8 bit files. This is not the solution for me - I need to keep these images 16 bit.
Question: Is this this just my version (I purchased downloaded upgrade), that is having trouble, or is this a wider problem that Apple aware of and is looking into?
Please advise. I have 1000's of scanned pictures that I have been working with for years that were fine and now are not. I purchased a new Mac Pro 2.8 so as to work more productively with these large images - and now it seems that the very software I rely on has failed me.
I have not been able to find any comments from Apple regarding this issue.

I've had this problem with images saved as 8-bit scans.
Are you using any compression in the TIFs? I scanned using Nikon Scan 4, cleaned up a bit in Photoshop 7, reduced the bit depth to 8-bit, and saved at TIFs with embedded colour profile using ZIP compression, Macintosh byte order.
This used to work with Aperture 1.5.6, but with Aperture 2.0 I see a kind of offset pattern, so a vertical line looks like this:
If export the master TIF, open it in Photoshop (where it looks normal) and save it with no compression Aperture displays it properly.
(I'm still using Tiger, so I don't think this is an OS issue.)

Retouching large 16-bit tiff images causes endless processing.

I have a few high-resolution 16-bit greyscale tiff scans of antique family photos in my Aperture library. The largest file size is 420MB. Since upgrading my library to AP3, editing these images causes Aperture to process endlessly. Aperture doesn't hang or crash and I'm able to close the application. If I re-open Aperture, it's no longer processing, but as soon as I view one of the problem images, it says "loading" and "processing" and never finishes. I've tried repairing permissions, repairing the library and rebuilding the library, to no effect. If I export the master and re-import it, everything is fine until I start retouching. after 10-20 brushstrokes, the image displays with strange artifacts and the endless processing begins again. These images work fine in Photoshop CS3. I'm using the latest 3.0.2 build of Aperture. Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it?

JSP Tiff Image Display

Hi all,
I have a problem in displaying Tiff image in jsp page. I am using Internet Explorer 6.0 . I have installed Tiff Image plug-in from the site www.alternatiff.com. If the location of the image is given directly i can view the image. But through javascript function if I pass the location of the image to the embed tag src then it is not diplayed.
i have posted the code:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
          function submitpage()
               alert(document.forms[0].image.value)
               document.forms[0].img.src=document.forms[0].image.value
               alert (document.forms[0].img.src)
</script>

Is there anyother way to view the tiff image.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Then I guess your Javascript writes crap.
Where's the Java part of your question?

Fixed: TIFF image display / import problems

Hello All,
I posted this in the discussion threads where I had previously discussed it with other members. But, felt that it would be good to share with everyone who is importing their photo's into the new iPhoto 6.
I, like many others, have been having a terrible time getting my iPhoto collection imported into the new iPhoto 6 program.
I have tried both the upgrade method (on a backup copy of my original library), and a fresh import of all my files.
Without fail, all of my TIFF images gave me trouble. Some looked like squiggly lines. Some looked like a diagonally distorted image (like you see on old Televisions trying to tune in difficult stations). And, some just plain refused to work.
All of my problem images look fine in the thumbnail (the library view). But, you quickly discover the problem when viewing the full-size image in the "edit" mode.
Some of my TIFF images are 30 megabytes in size, and many of them are smaller files of a more typical size. I found that the smaller files were just as unlikely to work as the larger ones.
And, while converting to JPEG may be an option, I didn't want to lose the depth and detail that TIFF offers (especially on pictures of documents / writing). The original TIFF images will offer greater detail when blown-up than compressed JPG files.
All of these images worked fine in iPhoto 5, and display perfectly fine in every other program. But, iPhoto 6 just refused to display them properly.
Well, I think I found the fix.
Today I downloaded the new iPhoto 6.01 update. But, that didn't fix the problem either. So much for Apple fixing it.
Anyway, I have been experimenting, and finally found a difference between images that worked and those that didn't.
The images that worked, have an ICC profile embedded in them from the device that created the image (in my case my scanner).
So, I set out to find out if simply removing the ICC profile would fix the problem.
And, through my experimenting, I found that if I opened the image in another program, and then exported it as either a TIFF (the same format) or a JPEG that the resulting image would open in iPhoto 6 just fine.
Further examination demonstrated that the ICC information was removed from the exported file.
As I understand it, ICC is basically an image color correction / calibration tag. It enables different devices to properly display and print the image with the proper colors.
Basically, each device has a color profile (scanner, monitor, printer, camera, etc.). This is to make sure that when you see something on the screen that it looks the same as when you print it out. Likewise, you want the image on the screen to match what the scanner and digital camera saw.
So, these are essentially conversion tables to make sure that each device properly displays or prints the image as the original source "saw" it.
Anyway, not wanting to manually strip this information from each file, I looked on the Internet for an automated solution. And, fortunately I found one.
http://www.colormanagement.com/technicalresources/files_targets_and_utilities/mac_os_xscripts/
The file you are looking for is "Mac Os X ColorSync Toolbar Script: Remove ICC profile". Click on the title just mentioned to download the script.
It is a Macintosh Script that you simply download to your desktop (or anywhere else you would prefer). It is in a Stuffit Archive, so you'll need Stuffit Expander to decompress it (basically the Mac equivalent of a ZIP file).
Once decompressed, you should see a "script" icon that is labeled "Remove Profile".
Simply "drag" your original files and drop them onto this icon / script. The script will then remove the embedded ICC information from the image file.
Once you have removed the ICC information from your image's file, try importing it into iPhoto 6 again. Then, see if it works
It is important that you perform this on a backup / duplicate copy of your original files. You don't want to damage your only copy if something goes wrong.
Now, one further note: If you do this, you may see the image looks different. In my case, the image is truer to the way it really looked when I scanned it in. The paper texture looks right now.
If you want to do this while keeping the image's appearance the same as it looks now, then here's another way:
Open the file in Apple's "Preview" program. This is usually the default image view.
Then, do a "Save As" or "Export" to create a new copy of the image. If you perform an Export, be sure to set the image quality high or you may inadvertently reduce your pictures detail (especially if you export to JPEG).
This essentially does the same thing. But, it will take more work if you have multiple images.
Using the previously mentioned script, you should be able to drag and drop multiple files in a group.
Anyway, I hope this helps the rest of you out.
Let me know if it fixes the problem for you as well.

Hello All,
I have an update:
It is definitely not a user account issue. I just completed a fresh install of OS 10.3.9 on my Mac Mini.
I performed a fresh install (on a freshly formatted hard drive partition), and made the installation as bare as could be for the sake of preventing potential problems.
I installed OS 10.3.9, and all the standard items in the usual OS 10.3.9 installation. I specifically left-out all the foreign language stuff, all the online programs (for other ISP providers), and misc. garbage.
I also left off all the iLife programs (every iLife program) that came with the restore disks. I even left-off the original QuickTime installation. My thought here was that I wanted to make sure that there were no problems introduced by upgrading the original iLife Applications to iLife '06.
So, this way, all the iLife '06 programs are installed fresh with no upgrading being performed.
So, I installed this bare OS 10.3.9 installation. Then, installed all the updates that were available. I repaired permissions before and after each update. And, installed all the updates from downloads from Apple's website (Not using Software Update).
After verifying that Software Update could not find any additional updates available, I then installed iLife '06.
This required first installing Quicktime 7.0.4 from the iLife '06 DVD.
After installing QuickTime, I then proceeded to install the iLife '06 package (remember that this is a completely new iLife install - not an upgrade install since I avoided installing the older versions).
Once iLife '06 was installed, I then installed the recent 6.0.1 updates for all the iLife Apps.
Then, I launched the iPhoto program for the first time to see if it would properly import my TIFF images.
Unfortunately, it still displays them as if they are scrambled (like a blocked television / cable channel).
So, with that done, I can confirm that it is not a corrupt file or another program on my system causing the problem. It is definitely a problem with iPhoto 6 / 6.0.1 and OS 10.3.9.
Just thought I would post the update here for others to add to their knowledge-base. Maybe if we rule out potential problems we'll be able to find the actual solution.
Again, this same set of images imports just fine into iPhoto 5 on OS 10.3.9 and 10.4.4. And, it also imports just fine into iPhoto 6.0.1 in OS 10.4.5. So, it is a problem apparently specific to OS versions 10.4.4 and older using iPhoto 6 or 6.0.1.
As mentioned previously, these TIFF images can be made to import fine if I remove the ICC information from the image. So, that may provide some clue as to where the flaw is in the iPhoto 6 / 6.0.1 program.

MBA old gen. and Snow Leopard - TIFF images seen as blank in some web pages

After I upgraded to Snow Leopard, I see blank the TIFF images displayed in some web sites, like for example any patent image in the www.uspto.gov web site.
This happens on both Safari and Firefox. They both use the QuickTime plugin (I have version 7.6.3).
However, if I drag and drop the TIFF image and save it in the local hard drive, local applications like Preview display the page correctly.
It seems to be an issue with QuickTime and possibly the MacBook model (I have a first generation MacBook Air, with the GMA X3100 Intel graphic card).
Has anybody experienced this bug?

How to edit 16bit TIFF image sequence file in FCP?

Dear all,
I have a number of 16 bit TIFF image sequence files (2048 x 1024 resolution) - some of them are RED footage, and others came directly from our f/x guy. We are going into a color correction session in a post house and we've been asked to provide a sequential 16 bit TIFF image sequence of the edited time line.
I need to do a cross dissolve b/w most of the clips I have. I have created image sequence QT movie (reference files) from the TIFF images. Though they play fine in QT player, when I try importing into FCP, I am met with a "general error". I tried both dragging it into QT, as well as File --> Import.
I am wondering what can I do to get these clips into FCP in order to apply the cross dissolve transitions I need. Is this a problem relating to the 16bit nature of the TIFF files?
I tried exporting the TIFF image sequence standalone QT movie, and those imported fine. However, I have a feeling that the standalone movie conversion also decrease my bit depth from 16 to 8. (When I do my final TIFF output from FCP after dissolves / transitions had been applied, each TIFF file is now 8 MB instead of 12 MB, hence my suspicion that the bit depth is adjusted).
Are there any settings I am missing, or does FCP simply don't support 16 bit image sequence reference file. As a test, I had also converted all my TIFF to jpg, and created jpeg image sequence reference file. These reference QT file can be successfully imported to FCP and I can edit them as if they are a clip.
If FCP is not able to handle these files, what are my other options? After Effects?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
Michael
<Edited by Moderator>

As far as I know, both FCP and Color only support up to 10 bit color, which is 1024 levels for each color channel, more than enough for avoiding color banding.
If you need 16 bit for sure, I believe AE will support 16 bit output. Another 16 bit application would be the extended version of Photoshop, which has some limited time line capability.

Open Tiff image failed with imageio package

I'm trying to open tiff files with javax.imageio.ImageReader. When openning the image file, "bad.TIF" with the following codes, I got an error. However, I can open the image with "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" (WPFV). After I opened/saved as File "good.TIF" with WPFX, I can open the image with the progarm. Would someone please help? Thanks.

Can you upload the bad tiff to an [image hosting site|http://www.imagehosting.com/]?
In general, when you set the input stream on a reader for a second time, it's a good idea to call reset.
errorPos = 2;
file = new File(testFile2);
tiffStream = ImageIO.createImageInputStream(file);
reader.reset(); <----- this line
reader.setInput(tiffStream);
tiffImage = reader.readAll(0, reader.getDefaultReadParam());I don't think that's the source of your problems though. You can add an IIOReadUpdateListener and a IIOReadWarningListener to the reader to see just how far it gets just before the exception is thrown. It may very well just be a badly saved tiff, or it could be a tiff image reader bug.

How do I Convert a Tiff image to a jpeg without being FORCED to 8-bit Color?

I am an Artist. I have High quality TIFF images. When I convert the tiffs to jpeg it forces me into 8-bit color automatically. (Forget about 32bit - it will not allow me to jpeg that at all) The only way I can get back to 16bit color is to use the already SMAshed file and bring it up to 16bit. THIS makes NO sense. Once the jpeg is smashed, HOw in the world is it supposed to convert up again. ?? Then even though it says you converted the file to 16 -bit , the metadata refers still to the file as 8-bit.
On top of all of that confusion, One picture, for example, when supposedly converted to 16bit, gets much BRighter then even the original Tiff image. It looks good on one hand and over exposed on the other. I assume that is photoshop throwing in fake resolution, am I right?
Am I wasting my time with this imaginary 16bit conversion?
Is there ANY way to take that original Tiff image and convert it to 16bit jpeg without the Default 8bit? I have been trying all kinds of things. I even have asked my web guy. My web guy says that 8-bit is unexceptable for printing, even for web.
Could this have anything to do with my computer and scanner?
I have the iMAC OS X 10.8.3 (3.2 GHz) 8 GB memory.
And I also have an Epson Expression 10000XL graphic arts scanner capable of scanniing at 48bit color.
This color stuff Really matters! It MATTERS! I HAve FINE art files. I am already losing so much quality with the jpeg conversion. (which I am required to do for SmugMug, in addition to compressing all my files to 50mb or Under)
Anyone who knows anything that could help me would be much appreciated.
Aloha,
-Melissa

First of all jpeg is 8 bit only there is no way to save as a 16 or 32 bit jpg, just does not exist. Secondly people print in 8 bit all the time and most if not all web graphics are in 8 bit as that is the only way to view it as there is no 16 bit or 32 bit monitors to view it. All but a few pro monitors are 8 bit monitors.
If you care about the color gamut and want the full range of color that 16 and 32 bit provide, then why jpg? Jpg by its own nature throws out color just to compress, thats why it is popular on the web, because of its small file size not its quality. If you need 16 or 32 bit for anything it must be in a format that supports that color depth.
That being said a jpg image at 8 bit will display 16+ million colors, 256 shades of red, 256 shades of green and 256 shades of blue.
Now here is where I think your bit information is off. a jpg image is a 24 bit image that will produce 8 bits of red, 8 bits of green and 8 bits of blue.
The 8, 16 and 32 are per channel not total color information.
If the overall image was 8 bits, the image would be gayscale.

Displaying TIFF images in Oracle Forms 6i

Hello, friends!
I am working in Oracle Forms 6.0.8 (that ancient tool) and encounter a problem with displaying TIFF images.
I have a number of scanned images and some of them are displayed and some are not. I've tried both extracting them from the database or from the file system (using READ_IMAGE_FILE). Sometimes I am getting just blank field in my image item and sometimes (after using READ_IMAGE_FILE) I get the error FRM-47100 (cannot read image file). Of course I've checked that all the files are displayed using standard tools for displaying TIFFs.
Basically the question is what kind of TIFF is considered valid and readable by Oracle Forms.
Analyzing TIFF tags actually gave me nothing: I have a pair of files with tags different only in image width/length and a number of rows/strip (but even those values are close), and one of the file is displayed correctly while the other is not. The thing I noticed is that invalid files are using compression type of CCITT Group 4.
Possibly Oracle Forms follows TIFF specification only to certain extent and does not support all the extensions, while sometimes the problems are not visible to user.
As a result of my work I need some automatic tool that converts undisplayable TIFF files to displayable ones but firstly I am to determine where the problem is. And it would be very good to have a prooflink that approves my decision.
Looking forward to any help! Thanks in advance.

Thanks to everybody, but I'm afraid my files don't contain any EXIF tags (although TIFF seems to support them). The file doesn't contain any tags with IDs greater than 0x7FFF but only core TIFF tags (with IDs of lower numbers). Moreover I have a file with exactly the same set of tags (but the values are a bit different) which is displayed properly.
I've shared the issued file (nondisplayable) on the following link: [https://rapidshare.com/files/3137807470/2.tif]
If anyone could tell me why isn't it displayed in Forms I would be very grateful.

Displaying a tiff image in a browser.

Hi I need to display a tiff image in the browser which does not have a tiff plugin. I guess I have to convert the tiff to jpeg on the fly and write it in the output stream. Has anyone worked on this or knows any other way. Please not I dont want to create an intermediate jpeg file.

Thanks for your help. I am having one problem though. The tiff file is not being read. The ImageIO.read(file); is returning null. I guess I am using the wrong ImageIO class.( javax.imageio.ImageIO;). I am pasting the code below. See if you can find out the bug.

Is this a bug of Outlook 2007 about images displaying in signature?

I've done many tests and researched on website or MS KB. But still got no solution.
My issue is:
I make a signature with images linking from website which can be easily accessed.
I setup this signature in Outlook 2007, when I compose a new mail, and choose the signature I set. It won't show the images with a high percentage rate, meanwhile, I try to get into "Signature"-"Signature...",
Outlook2007 gets stuck, then you can not close Outlook or open Internet Explorer unless you kill the process of OUTLOOK.exe.
1. Test are done under a clean XP system and Office 2007 standard fresh installed. Also there are some other staffs who help me test the signature that report the same issue on Office 2007.
2. Images are rendered in 96dpi. They are all in very small size stored on website, can be easily accessed without network connctivity problem.
3. The signature is made by simple HTML language not by Outlook signature setup wizard. but in this case, you can ignore which method I use to create the signature. The images in signature can be displayed well in Outlook 2003 &
2010. Also I have tried insert images using "link to file" in Outlook signature setup wizard, got same issue.
4. Don't suggest me to store the images locally. These images should be updated after a period. You can not ask the company staffs to update these images manually by themselves. and even if the images are stored locally, the images won't be shown
in Outlook 2007 with a high percentage rate.
5. I've tried setup signature with or without an account profile, got same issue.
6. I 've tried without an accout profile, just copy the signature file to Outlook signature folder, unplug the network cable, and "new mail" then load the signature, of course, the images won't be shown because network connection doesn't exist,
and then when I try to get into "Signature"-"Signature...", the Outlook interface also gets stuck. So I think Outlook 2007 may have some problem on detecting the network connectivity.
7. It is not possible to upgrate the version of Office. Since Office 2007 isn't out of date and is powerful enough for us, no one want to pay more money just to avoid this issue.
I don't know why I cannot upload a screenshot for troubleshooting. If needed. I can send a mail with screenshot attached.
So far to now, I still get no solution, I think this is a bug of Outlook 2007, because the same signature, there is no problem on Outlook 2003 & 2010. Hope someone of MS staff can see this article and report to technical support center.
I would appriciate anyone's kindly help but please consider that you understand what I am talking about. I don't want to waste time for each of us.
thanks in advanced.

What kind of problem about the display image in signature?
How do you add the image into the message body when you send the message?
Does it show correct through Web-based access?
Outlook 2007 doesn't support some of Style Element, you may reference the link as below:

Thanks for your reply, I know that some Style Elements won't be supported in Outlook, but this is not the reason.
Please refer to my post previously, I post it but get no response.

TIFF images are displayed as thumbnails but will not open for editing

I have noticed a problem with my iPhoto 7.xx
iPhoto displays the thumbnail of TIFF files but when it is selected (for editing as an example), iPhoto displays a grey circle with a black question mark. This happens with TIFF images from any source (multiple camera, scanner, etc). The TIFF files are NOT in raw format.

Open the file with Preview and do a Save As. Either change the format or keep the tiff. That should fix the files so they can be viewed normally in iPhoto. If the problem is due to an alpha channel in the file this will fix the problem.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
