2004.07.01 23:09 "[Tiff] MINISBLACK not working for COMPRESSION_CCITT_T6 document", by Ron James
I'm making the following calls:
TIFFSetField(iTFile, TIFFTAG_COMPRESSION, COMPRESSION_CCITT_T6);
TIFFSetField(iTFile, TIFFTAG_PHOTOMETRIC, PHOTOMETRIC_MINISBLACK);
And my document is created in reverse - i.e. white text on a black background.
So I change the 2ns call as follows:
TIFFSetField(iTFile, TIFFTAG_PHOTOMETRIC, PHOTOMETRIC_MINISWHITE);
And still get the same effect - white text on black.
However if I switch the COMPRESSION to COMPRESSION_PACKBITS, the TIFFTAG_PHOTOMETRIC calls switch between whits on black and black on white. What am I missing? How can I get a black text on white document using CCITT_T6?
Many thanks
