Paul, yes, imread() worked for reading the black and white TIFF. The situation improved, but now, there seems to be some problem with the color map. Example code:
#!/usr/bin/env python3 import numpy from matplotlib import pyplot, cm img = pyplot.imread('oi-00.tiff') pyplot.imshow(img) pyplot.colorbar() pyplot.show() The code can open both 1-bit and 8-bit images, but only with 8 bits the image is shown with the colormap colors. The 1 bit image is shown as black and white. The questions: 1) Should Image.open() behave like pyplot.imread() ? Is this a bug in PIL ? 2) Why isn't the colormap working with black and white images ? 2016-04-29 13:06 GMT-03:00 Paul Hobson <pmhob...@gmail.com>: > Does using pyplot.imgread work? > > On Fri, Apr 29, 2016 at 8:27 AM, Henrique Almeida <hdante.l...@gmail.com> > wrote: >> >> Any help with this problem ? >> >> 2016-04-27 11:35 GMT-03:00 Henrique Almeida <hdante.l...@gmail.com>: >> > Hello, what's the current status on numpy for loading bit-arrays ? >> > >> > I'm currently unable to correctly load black and white (1-bit) TIFF >> > images.
