Problem with multipage tiff output

[raphael]

Hello,

I do not succeed to produce multi-page tiff file using the convert command line of ImageMagick 6.4.1 06/09/08 on Centos 5.4 x86_64.
It simply puts the first image in the result file.
E.g.:
convert 1.png 2.png multi.tif ;; multi.tif then only contains 1.png (and is of the same size)
I also tried -adjoin which produce the same result. The -append correctly put images vertically in the result image.

I know such a command should work as it works well using 6.5.7 on Vista 64bits and I'm able to read it using IrfanView.

LIbtiff version is libtiff-3.8.2-7.el5_3.4.x86_64

Then I have tried to install ImageMagick-6.5.7-5 but I got the following error messages:

make all-am
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/ImageMagick-6.5.7-5'
CCLD coders/jp2.la

make[1]: *** [coders/jp2.la] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/ImageMagick-6.5.7-5'

Any help would be welcome.
Thanks,
Raphaël.

Do as the exception message suggests. Rebuild the Jasper library with the -fPIC gcc command line option. Check Google. There are hundreds of article that discuss this problem.
