Thank you both for your answers. I have applied your suggestions.

Making a single command works but does not change the result.

Concerning the compression, I used LZW instead of NONE. However, it also does not make any difference.

I also changed the srcwin parameters. I do not get any errors and the gdalinfo says that the subarea is within the original area.

I skipped the png part to make it easier first. And after trying to open the new tif with gimp and getting an error message that the float32 data cannot be displayed I added the ot-flag. Here is my new command line:

$ gdal_translate -ot Byte -srcwin 0 0 4000 4000 -co COMPRESS=LZW EUD_CP-DEMS_6500035000-AA.tif test.tif

What I get is a completely black tif. Here are the two gdalinfo-outputs, that I get:

    Dear Gdal-List,

    I have a large ASTER file (downloaded from
    http://www.eea.europa.eu/data-__and-maps/data/eu-dem#tab-__european-data
    <http://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/data/eu-dem#tab-european-data>)
    in the GeoTIFF-format. It is compressed with LZW. What I want to do is:

    1. unpack it
    2. seperate a smaller region from it
    3. convert this regional GeoTIFF to a PNG

    What I am doing:

    $ gdal_translate -co COMPRESS=NONE EUD_CP-DEMS_6500035000-AA.tif
    tmp1.tif

    $ gdal_translate -srcwin 6500 3300 1000 1000 tmp1.tif tmp2.tif

    $ gdal_translate -of PNG tmp2.tif tmp2.png

    When I display the info with gdalinfo the first step seems to
    produce a decompressed file. The line COMPRESSION=LZW is not there
    anymore.


You need to set the compression options on any gdal command, it does not
use the compression of the input file. Also, you specifically asked for
no compression, so it's doing what you told it to.
use "-co COMPRESS=LZW"



    However, if I want to display the min and max with gdalinfo, I get
    the following error.

    ERROR 1: Failed to compute min/max, no valid pixels found in sampling.


try without changing the extents and see if a single command (as
suggested by Jean-Luc) works


    I thought that the file might be too large, but if I change the
    data_type from float 32 to e.g. Int16 I get 0 as min and max value.
    That's why I assume that already the first gdal_translate does not
    work as I actually want it to work.


your input values are probably between 0 and 1 in this case


    The other two transformations work without error messages. However,
    in the end I get a black png.

    I have tried all types of transformation with various options. But
    as I am new in the subject and do not know much about gdal, I have
    no further ideas how to generate a file from my large GeoTIFF to
    continue working with.

    I hope someone has an idea, what's going wrong with my
    gdal_translations. Thanks very much in advance.

    Best regards
    Nicole
