And how do i make sure imagemagick is treating the tag as bytes? To be honest I'm a little bit lost here. Let me delve a little bit deeper. I have to work on a big image archive using ImageMagick. On several Tiff-files ImageMagick throws the Error: "wrong data type 7 for \"Photoshop\"; tag ignored." So i got a little bit curious and started reading about tiff tags and the TIFF specification. After i found out ImageMagick is using libTiff i finally got here. So my first Idea was adding the Data Type UNDEFINED. So, warmer, colder?
