Convert: unknown field with tag 292

Post by dieter »

Hello,

I'm trying to convert multiple single-paged TIFFS into one multipage TIFF using the following command: convert input_dir\*.tif output_dir\output.tif

This works fine for some files, but for others I get the following error:
Unknown field with tag 292 (0x124) encountered. 'TIFFReadDirectory' @ warning/tiff.c/TIFFWarnings/704.

All my TIFFs appear to be valid...

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

PS: I'm using IM 6.6.5-Q16-DLL

It is just a warning that there is some special field in your TIFF file that IM does not understand. But your image should be fine. It is not an error. Tiff files can be very complex with regard to user defined fields. For example IM does not know about Geo tags.

If you don't like to see those warnings add -quiet to your command line.
