Adding private tags to a tiff file.

Hi there,

I'm manipualating tiff images captured by a program that insists on
using annoying private tags. I want to be able to import an image that
I have created into the program but I cannot get PIL to save the
private tag. Here is a simplified version of the code I am using:

import Image
original = Image.open(r"te st.tif")
original.tag[34118] = "life"
print "Before saving" , original.tag[34118]
original.save(" test2.tif")
altered = Image.open(r"te st2.tif")
if altered.tag.tag data.has_key(34 118):
print "It worked!"

Is there a way of getting this to work? I have tried looking at
TiffTags and TiffImageFile, but I cannot understand why the tags are
not preserved. Or should I be looking at a different library?

Many thanks.

I saw that VB .Net 2003 has some tools for easily reading metadata information present in some TIFF and JPG files, eg. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ....

Hi All, As I know that the tiff contain header information, I can use one software called tifftags.exe to get tiff tag information. However, I can't get any reference from vb.net to do such feature. Please advise.. Thanks. Eddie

I have a web page and there is a link to open a TIFF file. The way I do it is to have the server code open a binary stream, set the content type to "image/tiff" and call Response.BinaryWrite. On the client machine, the file type TIFF is associated with Kodak Imaging Preview. This app works on most client machines. When you click on the link, Kodak Imaging Preview will open the TIFF file on the client machine. However, on some machines, the...

I am doing some basic modification to existing TIFF files using PIL (1.6 in python 2.5). When I open the image there is quite a bit of info in the tags dict that I would like to save with the new image. Apparently (based on other forums I've seen) once you process the image all the TIFF specific data gets lost. I can copy the info but can't find an example of how to copy or re-assign it to the new image. For example import...

I have a situation, where I need to add 4 or 5 data files (they change every time I build) in my project during build time and somehow I need a way to access these files during runtime. So I have 2 questions 1. Is it possible to identify all the files in the resource file during runtime by name of the file? 2. Is it possible to add files to a project at build time to make an exe with those files? Thanks.

Working in C# in Visual Studio 2005 So I know how to edit TIFF tags (get a propertyItem object, edit its details, and stick it into a bitmap), but saving them is presenting itself as a problem. After I'm done drawing on the bitmap, I convert it to 1bbp, then stick the propertyItems onto the bitmap. I've checked, and I can see each of the propertyItems I've put into the bitmap. I then save the file using the TIFF encoder and CCITT4...

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
