I get this in a specific tif file http://www.encode.dk/156974.tif

I've tried both IM ver mageMagick-6.3.8-11

and to be on the safe side, the newer ImageMagick-6.4.8-7

same problem, I'm aware that it is most likely a problem either in the libtiff or the tiff itself, is it possible someone could shed some more light on the issue.
Other tifs are working fine, which leads me to believe it's a tif error and not a library error

convert -debug -depth 8 -resize 200x200 -density 150 +profile iptc -compress None -colorspace RGB -strip ../Files/tmp/156974.tif ../Files/tmp/156974.tif.jpg

Any help is very much appreciated

We had to remove -debug for your command to work. Your command worked for us, we're using ImageMagick 6.4.8-7. Which version of libtiff are you using? The command identify -list format returns:

• TIFF* TIFF rw+ Tagged Image File Format (LIBTIFF, Version 3.8.2)

for us. Otherwise we need a stack trace to see if the problem is in ImageMagick or libtiff. Use gdb, run, and bt to return the trace.

Hmm problem seems to be the architecture, it's an IBM system P server running RHEL 5. What I don't understand is why some tifs are working fine
If you have any input or workarounds at all it is very much appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Anyways here is the libtiff version and the output from gdb and backtrace

TIFF* TIFF rw+ Tagged Image File Format (LIBTIFF, Version 3.8.2)
TIFF64* TIFF --- Tagged Image File Format (64-bit) (LIBTIFF, Version 3.8.2)

We tried the conversion on our 64-bit Fedora Core 10 system and it ran without complaint. Valgrind did not report any memory errors or corruption.

Alright, thanks for your time, I'll try to find a workaround

Kind regards
