Hi,
I'm experimenting with writing TIFF files using libtiff, specifically
writing tiled TIFFs. Having written what I presume is a valid tiled TIFF
(that opens in Photoshop and on our Mac's email client, amongst other
things), neither Picture or Fax Viewer, or Paint, will open the image. I've
noticed before that Windows isn't able to display EXIF tags attached to TIFF
files (except about 5 very basic tags), so I'm wondering whether Windows'
TIFF support doesn't fully support the standard or whether there's something
I'm doing that won't allow Windows to view it correctly, while other clients
can.
Any light that can be shed on this would be much appreciated.
