- It cannot search an entire Hard drive. If you would like me to add this feature to the program please let me know.
- It will check both Mac and PC PhotoShop™ TIFF files as long as the file creator is '8BIM' and the file type is 'TIFF'
- This version of Find RGB only checks PhotoShop™ files. If you would like me to add others, send me some E-Mail.
- There are no menus and no event loop for Find RGB. I will add a standard Mac interface in the next version.
Possible false readings
---------------------
I have checked Find RGB with PhotoShop™ 'TIFF' and 'EPSF' 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 files. I have not received any false readings with this version as I tested it, but I cannot check for every variable out there. It may stop (Very rarely) on...
1: Certain TIFF files that are in CYMK mode that Find RGB thinks are in RGB mode. This is because I wrote Find RGB to search the word at offset 0x004E rather than search for the tag itself. I have found most TIFF files store the mode value here (I haven't found any that don't). I did this to speed up the program sense this is faster than searching all the tags. Although according to the TIFF 6.0 file specifications, developers are free to put the mode tag wherever they see fit. Again, if you have any problems let me know.
2: Certain EPSF files that are in CYMK mode that Find RGB thinks are in RGB mode. It searches for the string "DocumentProcessColors" in the EPS file header. If it can't find this string it will stop.
As I have mentioned earlier, this version only checks PhotoShop™ files so these situations will most likely not become a problem until and if I add other creator types.
