I got some info on some of the sources of the TIFF files that I

Hmm, perhaps I will see if I can do a small script and they just
invoke it with the name of the file to view. That should not tax
them too much.

I am going to have to find XV and install it, I guess that it
is not in the files that Ubuntu has on their servers, so must
have to find it elsewhere, not sure if it is a binary or will need
to compile.
At this point I just want to see them. The big thing being that
I can see the pages behind page

Yes, that could be a possible work around. I will have to look into
it. I wonder what all that faxviewer needs to work in Wine. Have to
see if I can try it.

Another possible solution would be to see if the windows viewer that all
the users know will run under wine.

My background is in GIS; I work a lot with GeoTIFFs (TIFF files with a
world file that tells a GIS where in the world that image belongs). They
are almost always single page TIFFs, so I don't have MUCH to offer in the
way of advice. Still, the idea occurs to me: Have you considered
converting th

rendering come out gray rather than black. As to re-

thing is that the fax viewer on Windows will view them
just fine. Indeed at times I ha

Sorry,
Here is the link to some tiff samples:

I have imagemagic and it will display them but the 2nd page
is sort of grayed out, I can see the drawing but it is gray and
the lines are just deeper gray.

It is the quantity, all of the machine drawings are in tiff format.
And every time there is a drawing change I would have to re-
do it. It just seems strange that a format as common as tiff
and multi-page tiff (faxes are captured as multi-page tiff) is
such a problem to see supported in my favourit

If you want to see some fine examples of the sort of files I have
to deal with here is a link to a dropbox directory that will allow you
to see some examples (you can download them too, if you want
to test).

It's cumbersome, but I've used GIMP in Linux to pull these things up page
by page. Be careful if it's a large TIFF though, since they're memory
hungry and I've had freezes when a really large one tries to unpack all its
pages (I usually select just a few pages at a time).

Folks,
Here at work I have thousands of pages of tiff files, many of them
multi-page. I keep on running into a issue with my Linux boxes, that
is that multi-page tiffs just are not viewable (only first page) I am
running Ubuntu 13.10, and I have tried them all.
