.Tiff image issues

When I try to insert .tiff images (like iChat smilies) I have to move them way over for them to actually come up where I want them to when the site is viewed through a web browser. If I don't move them they show up no where I want them to. I have attached an image to show you what I mean.
I want the smilie to show up in the "hole" and where it is positioned now makes it show up there.

Hi,
I am new to MSDN and require some help on dealing with TIFF images.
How do i extract the values from TIFF images, edit their values, and resave them as TIFF images?
I saw the MSDN information on "How to: Encode and Decode a TIFF image".
But still have the following issues.
1)Image^ myImage = gcnew Image(); --> error: Image is ambiguous. I am apparently missing some includes or namespace, but i can find the System::Windows::Image namespace.
2)How do i extract the grayscale values from the TIFF images? What variables are they being stored in?
Thanks!

A generic error occurred in GDI+ while assing tiff image file to Bitmap and Image

Hi,
I am getting "A generic error occurred in GDI+" error while reading the tiff image file to Bitmap or Image.
Below is my sample code.
string filePath=@"c:\Images\sample.tif";
Bitmap bmp=new Bitmap(filePath); // here getting exception
int totalpages=bmp.GetFrameCount(.....);
etc......
I tried using Bitmap.FromFile() and also from FromStream() even for Image also but there is no use.
Moreover i m having full permissions for the file path and the tiff file is having multiple pages.
Can anyone help me to solve this issue please.
Thanks & Regards,
Kishore

Make sure that the Tif file is valid (can other software open it)? If you are able to save a Tif using GDI+, try saving that Tif, then opening it. Part of me wonders if there is something about that specific Tif that GDI+ doesn't like.
You could also try using WIC to open the TIF, perhaps you would have better luck there.

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.

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?

InDesign crashing when importing tiff images

I have upgraded to InDesign CC 2014. I have trouble importing some tiff images. InDesign crashes. Not all tiff images create problems. It depends on which version of Photoshop, they are saved in. If I open the image in Photoshop and saves again, there are not any problems. Our database is very large and contains several folders, so it is a big task to archive all images again, even if I create an action in Photoshop. I have searched, but I can not find any settings in InDesign that helps. Does anybody else has encountered this problem and found a solution?

ASk in the Id forum and provide exact system info, versions of PS, details about your files and so on. There is an issue with legacy color profiles in some cases, but beyond that I'm not aware of other problems that may be relevant here.

Difficulty Importing a Properly Sized TIFF image (I think)

Hello,
I am having difficulty importing an appropriately sized TIFF image that is a screen shot from my film. It seems to be a resizing issue of some sort.
The TIFF image is a straight frame grab from my film, which is sized 1920 x 1080.
here is the issue:
The screen shot from the film has the reclining face buddha image overlay upon "the walk in the forest" perfectly centered in the frame of the film, but when I import that screen shot from the film, the mouth of the Buddha and chin is cut off on the left hand side.
Any thoughts?
Is this because I am making this into a smaller DVD frame in Standard Definition?
Will it do this cutting off of the image for my entire film as well?
Matt

Hey Matt. If you are using this tiff in a menu in your SD project, there is going to be some issues going from an HD size of 1920x1080 down to 720x480. Is your project 4:3 aspect ratio or 16:9? Generally you want your menus to match what the video elements are.
If your encoded video elements are 4:3 (hard) letterboxed, then the menu should be 4:3 as well, although it could be 4:3 full frame. No sense having black bars on your menu pages. If this is the case, that 16:9 tiff image will be edge-cropped.
Likely since your video was shot in HD, you want to have a widescreen dvd. The source video will have to be encoded as 16:9 SD. I usually make all my elements before bringing them into Encore. For any menus, I start in Photoshop using the appropriate "Film and Video" preset. Probably the 720x480 widescreen preset (1.21 pixel aspect ratio) will work for your project if it is indeed a 16:9 disc you want to make. Being a 16:9 frame size, the tiff file will scale down almost perfectly into a 720x480 widescreen frame.
I would suggest making a new file in Photoshop using the appropriate film and video preset. Then open your tiff file in Photoshop and drag it into that one. Scale it down and save. That way when you bring it into Encore, the scaling has been done and you know what it is going to look like.
Note that when you are working with files in Photoshop that are not square pixels, they will appear jaggy or squeezed depending on if you have pixel-aspect correction turned On or Off in the View menu. The files are fine and will look good on a disc. Also, I almost always change the viewer in Encore to 100% or some other whole number rather than "Fit". Fit just seems to make things look terrible, especially text and the outer frame edges. There is also the option to toggle pixel aspect correction On or Off in that viewer as well.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

Tiff images not display properly

After installing iPhoto 6, none of the 1600 files in .tiff format imported via a Lexmark scanner are showing up correctly. (They worked perfectly well in iPhoto 5)
I get a blurred scribbled squashed image a little like a TV channel that hasn't been set correctly.
If I go back and click on the files in the Finder, they open beautifully in Preview.
This lead me to believe there was an issue with the tiff-format and I promptly converted a copy of the files to jpegs.
Unfortunately this left me with a new problem as three white lines now appear thru all the pictures in jpeg format.
Luckily I never deleted or moved the .tiff files, so I am still hoping to use those.
Will there be an Apple update which fixes this or will I have to re-scan and date/title- another (sigh) 1600 pictures? (please, someone tell me no)
Best wishes,
N

I think I found the fix.
As I mentioned in my previous post, I have also been having trouble with TIFF images and iPhoto 6.
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.

File Out Tiff Image Sequence

Hello! Can anyone recommend/explain the correct settings in the File Out node to output a TIFF Image Sequence?
Thanks!

Wow, I just figured out the Shake problem. First off you are right, my "black background" is an alpha mask. But why is it there?!? It is a "bug" in Shake:
FileOut - Quicktime Movie - Animation - Options - Compression Settings - "MillionsofColors" - Okay
Now, when I reopen the FileOut node to double check my Compression Settings, it has defaulted BACK to "MillionsofColors+" So yeah, "MillionsofColors" should result in an alpha-free export BUT SHAKE WILL NOT RETAIN A SELECTION OF ANYTHING OTHER THAN "MillionsofColors+" I tried setting it to "Black and White," "ThousandsofColors" - same issue - the export still has an alpha because Shake took the Compression Setting back to "MillionsofColors+"
So thanks for all your help on this, I'm glad your system is not operating with this quirk.
I'm pretty sure I hate Shake.

Blurry Tiff images

Hi,
As a new Motion user I'm having some issues with my first project. I've used After Effects since version 2-3 so I know my way around similar apps.
I've imported an uncompressed movie from FCP5.0.4 and I need to overlay a series of 6 images starting every 60 seconds with each image staying visible for 5 seconds. All sounds easy and is pretty easy except the tiff images are not sharp.
Each original tiff has a 1 pixel white border which turns to a 2-3pixel blurred grey border when I bring them into Motion 2.0.1 If I open them in the viewer or Quicktime they are perfectly sharp. I've turned off field rendering, have full resolution on etc. But just can't get the images as sharp as they should be.
The underlying movie is perfect though. Any help would be most appreciated.
Matt

Check the center position. If you just dropped it in place, you may be between pixels. Your TIFFs will be rasterized in Motion using a completely different function than AE uses. And you really should try to output to your target media and evaluate the movie carefully there. You may just be seeing artifacts created by your graphics card.
Wish I had a definite answer for you, hopefully one of the wonks will drop by within a few hours. Hope you get it fixed, Motion is really confusing for AE users.

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.)

TIFF Images Rendering

I imported a TIFF image into an FCE project. The image has text in it (as in drawings of texts). Using the Motion tab, I have the image moving in a of scrolling manner. However, even when this project is rendered and exported to decent quality, the text in the image is very jittery like and not smooth at all. I don't have the scrolling really moving all that fast at all.
I used TIFF because it is Apple native. Should there be another image type I use? When I made the TIFF image I saved it with no compression and the layers of the image project were 'merged' rather than 'flattened'.
Anyone else experience this issue or know the solution.
Thanks

Why don't you use Title Crawl in FCE?
Please give exact details of the image, its size, resolution, color space, also the contents, colors, fonts, sizes, anything else. Maybe a screen shot of possible.

Color Changed when reading a Tiff Image

I have created a ImageIcon of a tiff image by using the following code. but when reading some images the color is Mis-Matching
BufferedImage bufImage = ImageIO.read( <tiff file path> );
JLabel jLabel= new JLabel(new ImageIcon(bufImage));whats the reason for this?.. anybody send me the code snippet to read the tiff image in its original color.. please..

Thanks for the reply.
When I render a tiff format image, I have a choice to either render with a alpha or not. I pick with alpha.
In CS2 Photoshop when I would open that tiff file, my image would come up and I would be able to see the whole image I rendered. The alpha would be in the channel tab where I would make active and apply to my image if I wanted to.
Now in CS5 when I open that same tiff file my image opens up with the alpha applied already. What I mean by applied is my background is gone or transparent. I have no other layer to turn on. Just my image with no background. Also in the channel tab I have no alpha I would have to create one from the original image.
I hope this explains my issue better, if not let me know I'll have to do some screen shot for you.

How to do batch printing of multi-page TIFF images

I have TIFF images stored in the database as BLOB. The TIFF images can have one or multiple pages. I need to do batch printing of these images using Oracle Web Reports 6i in a 3-tier web environment. I was able to print single-page TIFF image by using an "Image" datatype; however when I print multi-page TIFF image, only the first page is printed.
Is there a way to achieve my requirement in Oracle Web Reports 6i. If not, can you please suggest any alternative method. Our environment is 9iAS Release 1 on Windows/2000, Oracle 8.1.7 db,Forms 6i and Reports 6i.
Thank you.

Did you ever find a solution to this issue? I'm currently fighting this same issue. Only the first page of my multi-page TIFF documents are printing.
