[news]Bedankt Guus, had kennelijk even last van een 'blinde vlek', want vergat helemaal te Googlen.
De eerste pagina (TIFF File Format FAQ) gaf al min of meer antwoord:
Multi-pageOne final important difference between TIFF and most other image file formats is that TIFF defines support for multiple images in a single file. Such a file is then called 'multi-page' TIFF. Thus, the TIFF format is very well suited to e.g. store the many pages of a single fax in a single file.
Drawbacks
Theoretically, all of this makes TIFF as flexible and suitable for a variety of applications as very advanced formats like PSD (Adobe's Photoshop® Document format). In fact, the clean simplicity as well as openness of the format is a major plus over a format like PSD. The TIFF format is owned by the same company that also owns PSD though, and as such, it is not very surprising that it has been more than a bit neglected over the last decade or so. That is probably the single most important drawback of TIFF: it lacks standardized support for advanced imaging features that were developed over the last couple of years. For instance, there is no standardized way to specify multi-layer relationships of different TIFF pages, even though a dedicated tag definition would be very feasible and very suitable. Neither is there a standarized tag for vector or text drawings.
En ik zat gisteren op 10.4.10, heb net het bestand in Preview in 10.5.1 geopend en zie daar gewoon alledrie de pagina's. Kortom Tiff blijkt helemaal niet zo standaard als ik dacht, Photoshop CS3 (zonder update, moet ik nog doen, maar het werkte tot nu zonder enig probleem dus er was nog geen reden voor een update) loopt bij mij achter en Leopard is gelukkig wel bij de tijd.
Wel vreemd dat XP het dus wel doet en 10.4.10 niet, ze zaten even te slapen bij Apple?
