I am using 6.3.2 ImageMagick.
Compiled the source on HP-UX PA-RISC.

the convert utility runs fine and converts the jpegs to tif. However gives the following warning.
convert: /kla-tencor/udb/imagewrite/sample.tif: Unknown pseudo-tag 65537. `TIFFSetField'.
convert: /kla-tencor/udb/imagewrite/sample.tif: Unknown pseudo-tag 65538. `TIFFSetField'.

Due to this warning the created tif cannot be opened on some image utilities like windows imaging and other image utilities.

Is this a bug in ImageMagick, do you have any solution for this?

I'm also having this problem. Only seems to happen with JPEG to TIFF conversion.

The only workaround i have right now is use the

./convert -compress none *.jpg *.tif

The size of file created is large compared to with compression.
Using certain other compression types makes the file not being able to view through other imaging utilities. lzw compression produces a file of intermediate size and also can be opened through other imaging utilities.
