Subject: Latest Ghostscript 9.10 issue when using tiff output filter
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2013 15:43:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <016801cee087$1b00d810$51028830$@pdf24.org> (raw)

Converting a PDF to tiff using Ghostscript results in an error. All tiff
devices can't be used.
I've used a fresh Cygwin with the latest Ghostsscript.

Command used:
gs -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -sDEVICE=tiff24nc -sOutputFile=test.tiff
test.pdf

Error:
Error writing data for field "BitsPerSample"

Used Ghostscript version:
GPL Ghostscript 9.10 (2013-08-30)
Copyright (C) 2013 Artifex Software, Inc.  All rights reserved.
This software comes with NO WARRANTY: see the file PUBLIC for details.


Seems to be a problem with the cygtiff-5 library. If I overwrite the
cygtiff-5.dll with the cygtiff-6.dll the error is away and the tiff file is
generated. Other software like imagemagic seems to have no problems with the
cygtiff-5.dll.

What's going wrong?
