Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Re: Error Message concerning TIFF Bitmap Buffer

2018-08-25 by John Isner

I reviewed my notes. I did NOT get an error message, but the preview thumbnail was blank. When I downsampled the image from 720 to 360, I got the preview. FYI the original tif (before sampling) was 12240 x 7920 (170 MB). It did not contain alpha channels or layers.

I've been wondering what the issue could be here. I've looked for an error message that is

similar to the subject line and can't find any. If you have the exact message I';d like to see it.
If the error comes before you hit Print its probably in the QTRgui frontend, but if after Print
then it would likely be in print engine. Anyway exactly when the message comes up would be useful too.

I can't think of any particular reason why re-sampling would make a difference except you just
have a different file so something unknown is making the difference. It seems like it happens
more will big files but if anyone gets a small enough file to fail consistently I'd like to try it here.

As long as I have some Windows users here, I have some new windows software that I'd like
to beta test with QTR users that use it regularly. Let me know by direct email if you are interested.
