What we need in order to identify the problem, is a tagdump. You can
build a tagdump either with a LibTiff tool like tiffdump or tiffinfo,
or, if you're using Windows, there is free app, easy to install and use,
over here:

http://www.awaresystems.be/imaging/tiff/astifftagviewer.html

Once installed and running, use the 'Browse' button to open your
particular file. Next, hit 'Copy tags as text', and next paste into a
follow-up question. We will then be able to see what type of file you
are refering to, and if the problem is or is not LibTiff, and advize
you.

Alternatively, if you're having problems building and posting such a
tagdump, and you have a file of under 1 megabyte in size, you may send
it to my personal e-mail address (not the list!!), and I'll post a
tagdump for you, for all to see and comment on.
