2008.01.23 22:12 "[Tiff] tiff2pdf converting multi-page tiffs out of order", by Andrew V. Royappa
Hello,
This file http://vs.spiralfx.com/msd2.tif is converted by tiff2pdf into this
file http://vs.spiralfx.com/msd2.pdf, but the pages in the PDF file are out
of order.
It is a small file (5 pages) so it is easy to see that the second page in
the PDF is not the second page from the TIFF file.
A little further inspection shows that the pages are the same, but out of
order.
I have done some due diligence to see if this issue has been reported
before; and also I downloaded and compiled the 4.0.0 version, to verify if
this problem is fixed.
I have a few questions:
a) Is this the right place to report such a bug, or should I register and
use the bugzilla link referenced on the man page?
b) Is this program being actively maintained at a pace where this could
expect to be fixed in a day or two (if it's an easy fix), or is the
development cycle much longer?
The reason I'm asking is that we are using this tool in a production site,
so we need a fix quickly. Of course, that is not the development group's
problem; I'm simply trying to decide if we should wait a bit or try to
implement a work-around using a different tool.
Thanks for any help!
