KSag Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I am having trouble loading an image to view and edit. Every time I try to load the image I get the message "not enough memory to load the image" The image is only 1299 KB. and is a .tif image. The image can be found at this address. http://gis.sedgwick.gov/pub/plats/pc/pc46/pc46-7b.tif Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Like Pi Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 See this topic for details on how Paint.NET stores images: http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewt ... =6007#6007 Using information there, your image would take up about 2 GB of RAM, even though the image is much smaller compressed as a TIFF (due to it's massive dimensions). I should have checked the size before nearly crashing my computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSag Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 OK I think I understand now. If I upgraded to 4 gb of ram would I eventually be able to open it. I tried it on my home computer and had the same memory problem with P.Net and photoshop. Thanks for your reply BTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I might be going out on a limb here, but if the program says there isn't enough memory ... then, maybe, there isn't enough memory?

sandman9 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Does anyone know the acceptable dimension limits for Paint.Net then? I'm having the same issue with a 22x24 inch page size.

KSag Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 I was wondering if there was a way around the memory requirements but evidently Mr. Brewster hasn't heard of virtual memory. Well I found a workaround anyway by opening the image in MS Office document imaging and cutting and pasting the sections of the image that I needed which reduced the size to a manageable amount. Guess I wont ask stupid questions here anymore. :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidCore Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I would think there is no real acceptable dimensions and that it just depends on your computer BTW could you tell us the size of the image in an easier format Right click on image>Properties>general it should be there under location EDIT: oO you snuck in on me!!! ^ that goes for sandman9 Quote My DA | My Googlepage!| My Cursors | MY Work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandman9 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 It's 827kb on disk and the overall length and width are 22x34 inches (imperial)... Metric=55.88 x 86.36 I'm not sure what it is in pixels... I have 2gigs if RAM so it shouldn't run out of memory... Quote "If a man does his best, what else is there?" - General George S.

Rick Brewster Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I was wondering if there was a way around the memory requirements but evidently Mr. Brewster hasn't heard of virtual memory. Way to attack and solve the problem with an irrelevant and untrue ad hominem attack, KSag. All you've succeeded at doing is highlighting your own lack of knowledge in this area.

sandman9 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I'm still trying to figure this out, I don't want to reduce the overall length and width. I don't want to loose any resolution.

Rick Brewster Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 sandman9, You need to determine the pixel size of the image. Do this by multiplying its size in inches by the DPI of the image. For example, 10 inches * 300 dpi = 3000 pixels. Then follow the formulas in the post that I Like Pi linked to above. In the current release of Paint.NET, these limitations simply exist. KSag's please-ban-me attitude aside (I was this close, KSag, you're lucky I'm in a good mood right now), I am looking to do significant work to relieve this memory pressure in a future version.

sandman9 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Width 14401 x Height 9601 @ 400 dpi and it's actually a 24x36... <-- that size changes everytime I post... ha ha... anyway for sure this time, it's 24x36.

MattBlackLamb Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 I'm not surprised you had that problem, that is one massive picture. :shock: Quote dA Son, someday you will make a girl happy for a short period of time.

krispy Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 I also have a problem with a 17M tiff image, which is large. I can open it in any other image program, including MS Paint, but Paint.NET chokes on it and says 'Not Enough Memory'. Definitely a bug somewhere....
