Adam,

Thanks. It seems to be the answer. I will look into it.

I am working with people from our school's pathology department and they scan images using ScanScope scanner and the images are usually BigTIFF formats.

From the dump info below you can see that there are totally 7 directories.

First one is the full resolution image, second is a thumbnail, Dir #2,#3,#4 are reduced resolution images followed by two more images.

Dir #0, #2, #3 and #4 are using Compression (33003) which is not recognizable by LibTiff. So using tiffcp can only extract other images that use JPG or LZW compression schemes.

Anyone know 33003 compression codec?

I read from ScanScope's documentations that they use JPG, JPG2000 and LZW for compression, but JPG2000 is not 33003.

Any ideas?

Hi,

These images can probably be read by OpenSlide.

If not, please file a bug. Thanks!
