Description k_b0000 2004-02-04 07:17:44 UTC 
wish:
add support for reading and writing TIFF files with 16 bits per pixel per
colour.
both black and white and colour images should be capable of this.
Comment 1 Raphaël Quinet 2004-02-04 08:21:36 UTC 
The TIFF plug-in is able to deal with 16-bit TIFF files, but it has
to truncate the color channels to 8 bits because the core of the GIMP
cannot handle more than 8 bits per channel yet.  Support for 16 bit
color will be implemented in a future version of the GIMP.  This has
already been mentioned in several bug reports: bug #74224, bug #95737
and bug #125302.
