Hi all,

I have used purepdf a couple of times for pdf-related issues. But now
I am looking into displaying tif-images with Flex, but the tif-format
isn't supported by Flex. I have tried two other open-source projects,
but they are too limited (no multipage support, etc) and before
starting to implement a tif-decoder myself, I am looking into other
alternatives. Now I was wondering if it would be possible to decode a
tif-image to a bitmap with purepdf? I have managed to get info about a
tif-image, like the number of pages. But I get kind of lost in the
code when searching further for the decoding. Since it can convert tif-
images to a pdf-document I suppose they have to be decoded? Or am I
wrong?

Hi,

You might want to have a look at:

Also, Kevin Hoyt (an Adobe Evangelist) has a TIFF encoder somewhere...

Cheers

Hi,
Thanks for your answer. I have looked into mr Yeung's project and the
project is good, but I need a little more features, especially
multipage support. But I think I will look into adding this to his
project myself.
