Hello,
I have a tif file that I'm trying to convert to a pdf file. When using nconvert, the -binary floyd option is causing it to crash and return a 255 error code. I included the full command line in case some other parameter might be having an effect. If I remove the -binary floyd option, it works. I can open the tif in paint so it seems to be a valid tif file. I can also convert it in xnView using the Floyd option and it works there. So I don't know what the problem is with nConvert.
The -binary nodither option works and seems to do the same thing. I know nothing of all this graphic stuff and its terminology. I have no clue what the -binary option does. If nodither does the same thing as Floyd, I could just use that. Can anyone provide any guidance?
The resulting pdf file is run through somewhat of an OCR process that pulls data out based on the x/y axis location. The x/y axis locations are drawn and recorded by a person using a viewer app. Maybe the -binary Floyd option cleans up the image to make it work better for our process?
Thanks,
Kevin

Re: nConvert crashes using -binary floyd
I'll have to see if we can send it out. They are customer proprietary images and I need to check with upper management.
Re: nConvert crashes using -binary floyd
I can send you the TIF. Do you have an email address I can use? I don't want to attach it for anyone to see.
