Tiff operability

Post by myspacee »

hello to all,
want to work with .tiff but encountered some problems.

Main problem is working with lzw compression.

Simple operation as resize, suffers with this command line :
(enormeus temp file generation)

convert c_full.tif -resize 5% c50.tif

read around forum this site and others, that lzw is no more supported, is true ?

i post here one of my .tiff http://www.megaupload.com/it/?d=RORX8IOY

need info for:

- resize it to 7%
- chose right format (at this point not .tif) to manipulate them (.bmp, .png, ...)

thank you for any info,

m.

Try this:
  • convert c.tif -sample 5% t.tif
If you use -resize, add -monochrome to your command-line, although -sample is best in this case.
