hedles Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Why is it that when I open a multi-page .TIF document, I can only see the first page? This behaviour is common with MS Paint, but MS Windows Picture and Fax viewer shows all the pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmeg Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I have the same question. Is there a plug-in that can give one the ability to edit subsequent pages of a multipage TIFF?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oma Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I don't think we have this function yet but this is my work around for doing multiply page tiff files in my genealogy work. use Irfanview (free Program) open tiff image navigate to page you wish to work with (up down arrows ... my version are green arrows in red box) file save as .jpg make sure you note where you put it. open paint.net program file>open> locate the saved as file above. then do your edit. sorry its the only work around I know of. perhaps someone else has an easier method. ciao Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Paint.NET does not support multipage TIFFs. It will only load the first page. Please remember that pages are not the same as layers. They're completely different and orthogonal paradigms for organizing images.

tmeg Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 ...use Irfanview (free Program) open tiff image navigate to page you wish to work with (up down arrows ... my version are green arrows in red box) ... I use Irfanview, which has a simple editor built in as well. I was hoping this might be a superior tool for this pursuit. Question to developer: Is it a particularly difficult technical issue to extend the functionality of this tool to multipage tiffs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 TIFF support in Paint.NET comprises about 1 line of code, and is only there because it can be done that cheaply. There's really no demand for rich TIFF support where Paint.NET is targeting, and it would be very expensive to do in a non-cheesy way (e.g., converting pages to layers). Short answer: Not gonna happen.

tmeg Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Thanks for the answer. If it isn't gonna happen , then that what matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
