2004.04.15 01:51 "[Tiff] Q about JPEG-in-TIFF", by Chris Losinger

I'm creating JPEG-in-TIFFs (comp mode 7) with LibTiff 3.5.7. I find that a few high-profile apps (like Microsoft's Document Imaging, Filenet and ACDSee) can't decode them, yet these same apps can read JPEG-in-TIFFs (again, mode 7) that were created with LEADs TIFF encoder.

are there any known issues with 3.5.7's JPEG-in-TIFF encoder? (can't search the archives right now, apparently)

if anyone wants to play, i've got a ZIP file (67K) with two of these files (one from LibTiff, one from LEAD) here: http://www.smalleranimals.com/zips/LEAD_JPEG.zip
