Multipage TIFF and image size.

First some background: I process files coming from the ImagePlus system. Some of them are MO:DCA, some are TIFFs. In one case I get a single file from the ImagePlus (multipage TIFF). The system processes all files in the same way, so a mulitpage TIFF is opened, image by image, and saved into another copy as a multipage TIFF.
The problem: when the first image is small (that comes from a scanner), it seems that all images in the file end up cut off. Is this a limitation of the TIFF (multipage) format, or there is an option I need to set to save each image into the multipage file correctly. The version we are using is V13.
Thanks for any help!!!

What interface are you using?  Could you please post your code which reads and saves the files as well as images which display the problem?  If you are going to upload images to the forum make sure you put them in a zip file first.

Here is the code:

imageData->ImageOptions.PageNumber = 1;
uFlags = FILEINFO_TOTALPAGES;

nRet = L_FileInfo( imageData->Source.szFilename, &(imageData->Source.FileInfo), uFlags, &imageData->ImageOptions);
if (nRet!=SUCCESS) {
    return(-1);
}
else {
       imageData->iRealPages = imageData->Source.FileInfo.TotalPages;
}
for (imageData->iCurrentConvImage = 1; imageData->iCurrentConvImage <= imageData->iRealPages; imageData->iCurrentConvImage++) {
    L_GetDefaultLoadFileOption( &(imageData->ImageOptions), sizeof(imageData->ImageOptions) );
    L_GetDefaultSaveFileOption( &(imageData->ImageOptionsSave), sizeof(imageData->ImageOptionsSave) );
    imageData->ImageOptions.PageNumber = imageData->iCurrentConvImage;
    imageData->Source.FileInfo.PageNumber = imageData->iCurrentConvImage;
       nRet = L_LoadBitmap( imageData->Source.szFilename, &(imageData->Source.hBitmap), 1, ORDER_BGR, &imageData->ImageOptions, &imageData->Source.FileInfo);
       if (nRet!=SUCCESS) {
           return(-1);
       }
    imageData->ImageOptionsSave.Passes = imageData->ImageOptions.Passes;
    imageData->ImageOptionsSave.GlobalLoop = imageData->ImageOptions.GlobalLoop;
    imageData->ImageOptionsSave.PageNumber = imageData->iCurrentConvImage;
    imageData->ImageOptionsSave.Flags = ESO_NOSUBFILETYPE|ESO_REPLACEPAGE;

       nRet = L_SaveBitmap( imageData->Target.szFilename, &(imageData->Source.hBitmap), imageData->iImageType, imageData->iBitsPP, imageData->iQFactor, &imageData->ImageOptionsSave );
       if (nRet != SUCCESS) {
           return(-1);
       }
       L_FreeBitmap( &(imageData->Source.hBitmap) );
}



Images attached... as you notice, the first image is only half-page tall, and so is the rest.

Thanks!!!

Could you please post the original images?  That way I can mess around with your code over here to see if I can produce the same results or solve the problem.

Included are two files in a zip:

1. 2007-09-17-09-04-35-463733_001.MCA is an image (could be a TIFF or a MO:DCA file) that comes from the mainframe ImagePlus system, and is saved as a binary stream from a low-level socket interface.
2. 2007-09-17-09-04-35-463733_001.tif is a converted file

Please, let me know if it helps with your debugging.
Thanks!!!

Ahh... I did not realize that I need L_FileInfo() for anything else than getting the total number of pages. Thanks for your help!!! Greatly appreciated!!!

I forget to mention the second way to accomplish this task.  The following line of code inside the for loop can be removed:

imageData->Source.FileInfo.PageNumber = imageData->iCurrentConvImage;

Instead of passing "imageData->Source.FileInfo" to L_LoadBitmap(...) you can pass in NULL and the image produced will be what you are looking for.  This approach eliminates the unneccessary overhead of querying the file each time for its dimensions.  With this approach you do not need to make the changes I recommended in the above post, these are two separate ways of accomplishing this task.

Thank you. The first suggestion one worked, and I'll try the second one next.
