Hi, all.

Gimp already can open multipage tiff as multilayer image, but it can't save it correctly. I didn't see gimp code, but it seems not hard to write something, that we already can read.
What can help to resolve this problem?

The only thing that helps is writing a patch :)

Regards, --Mitch

Of course :-), but i just think about some donation that can help with an intrest in the tiff saving. Is this possible?

It is possible to donate to Gimp and we promise that it will help with the development of the Gimp (mainly by financing face to face meetings of gimp developers and relevant projects).

However, we do not want to have feature-specific donation: This would hamper our independance and would make it harder to reject bad ideas from the outside.

Of course tiff multipage saving is not really a bad idea - don't get me wrong there - but we really would prefer a patch over money.

Thanks, Simon

Hi,

it seems we already have a patch: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=335975 It only needs to be tested and integrated.

Kind regards,

Sven

Wow! This is great! Thanks a lot. I've adopted this patch to gimp 2.6 from debian squeeze source package. May be this is useful for anybody.
Why this patch is not in the mainstream yet?

I don't know. Perhaps it's not tested enough? To let this patch and your efforts be a benefit for all, can you please test the patch and report at the aforementioned Bugzilla page about the results.

P.S. Forgot the patch

This patch will not work with the current master and if I am not mistaken, a cursory glance says that it won't save 16-bit tiffs and hence would have to be modified.

Sorry.
