> I've agreed to help a pal put together a quick website for a new
engineering
business. They're emailed some tif files to me, but when I try and open them
in Photoshop, I get an error saying unable to open due to unsupported colour
space.

Any suggestions on how to open them? There's no point in asking the sender,
they'll think a colour space has pretty twinkly stars... <


Neil, it is 'amusing' that Adobe own the TIFF format  - but their flagship
image processing application can't open the _many_ forms of TIFF file that
various apps can write (acquired from Aldus, now Aldus gave Adobe some
competition back in the 'old days') . Just an observation.

I would suggest that a shareware graphics viewer app be used [graphic
converter or whatever on Mac, irfanview on PC etc]. My guess is that this is
YCC or some other mode which is not supported by Photoshop and may require
conversion to a mode suitable for input to APS (this is just an unfounded
guess though). Have you tried QuickTime PictureViewer?


Good luck,

Stephen Marsh.
