Given that ImageMagick's display can display them, I'd bet that
convert(1) can pull this off, at least with a bit of coaxing. The
manpage shows an example for converting a postscript document into
individual fax pages; I'd bet it would work just right if you just
specified the multi-page tiff as the source file in place of the
postscript:
convert document.tiff fax:page
(untested)

It is some time since I've used it and there isn't a multi-page tiff around for me to try it on, so to what extent it works I do not know.

I'm getting documents in a multi-page tiff format. I'd like to split these to a single file per page. I haven't found a tool which does this automatically. Any suggestions? Peace. -- Karsten M.

I use KFax 1.3.0 (which is in KDE 3.1.3) for Efax .tif files. It works very well for me. Andy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

A lightweight and efficient solution is to use viewfax. It's in the mgetty-viewfax package. Brian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I asked this very question on this very list, years ago. Display from the ImageMagick package works fine. BTW, as of 2000 you could run the eFax viewer (Windows software) under WINE just fine.

eFax tiff viewer?
eFax service www.efax.com deliveres faxes as email attachments in multipage tiff format. When I open such an attachment using tifftopnm, gimp, or gimv I can only see the first page.
