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?
