Basically I am just asking for advice: what would you suggest to use to generate preview from this kind of tiff file:
http://209.208.230.141/bwt/Bad_700K_RGB_JPG.tif
I see that 'tiffinfo' crashes when reading your file. However, GraphicsMagick built against a libtiff similar to tiff-4.0.0beta1 is able to read it and produce a nice image of some people playing a game of chance.
I see that ImageMagick is not capable of reading this file since it crashes.
The answer seems to be to use GraphicsMagick.
