- Hello!
-
- I'm using the 'totiff' utility from the NASA iris site @ Langley to
- convert *.rgb to TIFF. Then it is transported to Mac for incorporation
- into a Pagemaker document.
-
- Problem a): Pagemaker dislikes this kind of TIFF, it puts some
- horizontal running black lines into the picture
- in a random way.
-
- Any other Mac Programm (e.g. Adobe Illustrator) has
- no trouble with it.
-
- Does anyone know about this? Unfortunately I must use
- Pagemaker.
-
- Problem b): The printing service has recommended to use a 4-color
- TIFF, what means that black is stored into a own
- layer. This would stop the printing machine from
- mixing up black out of red, green & blue.
- (And results into a more clear print)
-
- Does there exist a utility for this "4 color TIFF"?
-
-
- Thanks & Bye, Marc
