Memory allocation failed `Not enough space'

Post by gursch »

I have several tiff files ImageMagick fails to convert (using convert.exe) on Windows. They work perfectly with other tools.

Debug output:

Code: Select all

Any idea?

Try this command:
  • convert -limit area 0 1118_1139_t_53_w_001.tif out.jpg
If that fails, post a URL to your image so we can download and inspect it.

Didn't work. I will send you a private message with a download link.

Your image has a profile with a 37724 tag (Photoshop private tag) that is over 500MB but much more when ImageMagick tries to store it in tree structure in memory. Because of the huge memory requirement for this profile, your system fails to honor the request for memory and ImageMagick exits. The 37724 tag appears to be a custom tag. Do you know why the profile is so large?

The conversion works fine on our Linux system. Under Windows, when we remove the 37724 tag, the resulting TIFF image converts without complaint.

Unfortunately I don’t know. I know that they are using cameras from Sinar. I guess that the camera puts the raw picture information into that tag (what else could be so large?). I tried the 64bit Version of ImageMagick and the conversion worked. Is there a way to say to ImageMagick to ignore the tag?

We could add an option to ignore a tag but it is not currently supported.
