Hello,

I want to use .tiff files in Processing. I can load .tiff images into a
Processing sketch if the image has been made by Processing. I cannot
load other .tiff files. Does anyone know enough about both gimp and
Processing to help? There is clearly something in the metadata that I
need to discard or change.

Thanks,
Paul

'TIFF' has been described as 'Thousands of Incompatible File
Formats'.  I've seen warnings in gimp, in the past, when
opening tiffs created by a proprietary application (they were
created many years ago), but at least they opened.

An overview of the formats is at wikipedia.

Perhaps you could raise an issue athttps://github.com/processing  to
see if the requirements are documented anywhere ?

Thanks Ken,
That was a very good suggestion. I found the relevant code at:
https://github.com/processing/processing/blob/master/core/src/processing/core/PImage.java#L3012

Now I just need to find someone who understands it! Any ideas?
