Description Timpoldo 2011-03-15 09:57:15 UTC 
Hi.
I've a problem with Evince. I'm running Evince 2.32.0, on Ubuntu 10.10 machine.
My problem is with a multipage Tiff file, written by a Fax software running on an XP machine.

The trouble is that Evince open it, shows that is a multipage file... but the page are fully black. Nothing appears in its content.

Atteche a sample tiff file (2 pages) which i cannot display. (Default image Viewer in Windows XP, open this file normally)

Any ideas? Is available an update to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

File appears to be not valid:

Fax3Decode1D: Warning, /tmp/test_multi_tiff.tif: Premature EOL at line 2268 of strip 0 (got 0, expected 1728).

Gimp is able to open too. 

We need to check out if the problem is on Evince or if we should report a bug to libtiff.

Also Openoffice-Draw opens the file. But only first page :-(

I confirm that this is a bug in libtiff (in the case the file is valid). Please forward the bug to them.
Comment 6 Juanjo Marín 2011-03-17 07:32:39 UTC 
Because Gimp also uses libtiff, it makes me think about a problem in Evince processing a conflict¡ng/malformed tiff document.

Proposed patch

Set stopOnError to zero on TIFFReadRGBAImageOriented() calls. This allows overlooking errors and processing malformed tiff files produced by buggy programs.
