2009.01.11 22:12 "[Tiff] Setting of BitsPerSample", by Wendell Dingus

I've got a bunch of TIFF images produced by a company out of my control which do not contain tag 258. As such it's causing me some grief in some other software, software that expects that tag to be there. So I've tried to manually set it, I know they're monochrome, but I can't seem to set the tag.

Thanks.
