Re: Inconsistent alpha flattening of transparent TIFs

Well, the problem with this is that the alpha channel is not a "transparency" channel. If you open that TIFF in Photoshop, you will not see any transparency--only the normal image with an additional channel: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/spa/4moihw0kt47f2sy/j02xou4p.png The problem is that I ...
