Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

I have a problem when I convert a layered TIFF to a PSD file. The layers in the PSD file does not reflect the layers in the TIFF file.
This is a problem since we need to continue working on the PSD file.

I have 2 example TIFF's and the corresponding PSD files:
test1
tiff: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bxab3 ... 0NnX2o4dDA
psd: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bxab3 ... VQtLUVwX1U

test2
tiff: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bxab3 ... jdVT1R1WnM
psd: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bxab3 ... jVldXJDUzg

(Note, the images are copyright protected and can only be used to investigate this issue. I have added red-lines to the images to prevent other uses).

I have used following command:
convert test1.tif test1.psd

I have tried different options, but nothing seems to affect the layer-information.

This is done with ImageMagick version 6.9.2-10 Q16 x86_64 2015-12-21
Run on Mac with OS X El Capitan (Version 11.10.2)

Any help on this issue will be appreciated.

Your files do not download successfully for me on Mac OSX Snow Leopard using either Safari or Firefox.

Hi

I have copied the two tiff-files to drop box as well.
test1:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/eo7booim6b7ww ... 1.tif?dl=0

test2:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/w9fee45gf18yn ... 2.tif?dl=0

Unfortunately there is not room for the output-files at the moment. But it is easy generated by calling "convert test1.tif test1.psd".
I'll hopefully be able to upload the output-files next week.

Hope you can read the files now.

regards

Sorry, your uploads to both systems were likely fine. Your images are very large and I had not waited long enough for them to download fully, before.

I downloaded the first image and reviewed it's structure in PS (CS) and then converted it to PSD in Imagemagick. Then looked at the psd structure. I am using IM 6.9.3.0 Q16 Mac OSX snow leopard

I am not an expert on this, but I do not think IM supports conversion of group layers or adjustment layers.

But I will defer to the IM developers to respond properly.

Fred is correct, group layers and adjustment layers are unsupported. We try to read the layers from a TIFF image but we don't support all the features that Photshop has.

Thank for your prompt responses.
I suppose there has been some work supporting some Photoshop layers in tiff-files in viewtopic.php?f=1&t=26785

Is there anywhere, where I can see what Photoshop features are supported by convert?
