Not so much dials and bells. Just some linear rescale of layers. ( However, seems that this fax do not use the decode field, which is a major interest of ITU spec. ) Result can be found here, http://jeanyves.leridant.free.fr/pub/ with some other TiffJpeg lab files, and a Win32x86 build of a "yaTiffcp" I used to produce them. All sync well with photoshop, except 16 bits/sample jpeg tiffs. Of course. > It is hard to answer that question. There's no means of objective > measurement.

Ah ouais, ça le marché .... ;-) Suffira que quelqu'un à Microsoft se dise que ne pas afficher de vignettes des images Lab, c'est franchement tarte, particulièrement dans un machin qui s'appelle "aperçu des images et des telecopies dans windows", qu'il faut bien que ça serve à quelque chose de quadrupler la puissance de traitement pour faire tourner LongHorn, et tous les vendeurs se mettront en devoir de prouver à chaque individu de la planète qu'il a besoin de ITU lab en 8, 12, et jpeg ... Et ils réussiront. ;-) Best regards. -- Jean-Yves.
