strange error message
#3
(01-17-2023, 07:11 AM)Ofnuts Wrote: TIFF means "Tag Image File Format" because various parts of a file are identified with tag (which is just a number, often written in its hexadecimal form (0x89AB is hex for 35243)). There are standard tags but applications can define their own tags to identify specific parts; for instance, the "raw" CR2 image files from Canon cameras are TIFF images with Canon-specific data.

So, your message just means that your scanner software encoded a tag that the TIFF file loader doesn't recognize. Maybe it's a new standard tag (because you are using an old file loader) or maybe it is just a proprietary tag. 35243 (0x89AB) looks like a standard TAG but I couldn't find it defined anywhere. If the image loads it's not important.

as i noted, i was merely curious. thanks for your reply.
