Many thanks for this information, snibgo. I'll try option 3 and see if I can see problems with the outlined area.

Will do, fmw42.

Thanks for the heads-up regarding the "Y" and "V" commands. I'll watch out for that. Back to testing more TIFF files...

Many thanks snibgo & fmw42!!! I tried you solution and it works well for ~6 or so files I have tried so far. I'll run it over a good test set of TIFF files and see if the results are consistent. Either way, you have steered me to a solution that I can continue to tweak based on the results of pr...

Thanks for the further tip. I'll start playing with Inkscape now & see if I can get it working - but hopefully snibgo will be able to share his knowledge in this area.

Many thanks - transparency is working better now.

As you point out, the original problem still remains regarding the difference between the clip paths that Photoshop sees and what ImageMagick sees. Hopefully someone can provide some insight or alternative method.

You're right. Without quotes works fine and fixes the problem. Thanks! So, I'm down to these two commands: identify.exe -format %[8BIM:1999,2998:#1] watch.tif > clip.svg convert.exe watch.tif -alpha off clip.svg -compose copy_opacity -composite watch.png I get a resulting watch.png - but it does not...

Single quotes certainly are significant. Without them in clip.svg, the convert command line works fine (no crash & watch.png is created). Not sure why the single quotes are there. The following command line has single quotes in the ImageMagick output (i.e. first char & last char): identify.e...

clip.svg: '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <svg width="1654" height="2205"> <g> <path style="fill:#00000000;stroke:#00000000;stroke-width:0;stroke-antialiasing:false" d=" M 458.979 619.814 C 458.332 620.982 456.631 628.703 456.422 62...

Thanks - that was a good hint. My delegate.xml had: <delegate decode="svg" command=""rsvg-convert" -o "%o" "%i""/> <!-- Remove the extra space in - -export in the line below when you want to use inkscape --> <!--<delegate decode="svg:decode"...

Just uninstalled ImageMagick and re-downloaded and installed the latest Windows ImageMagick binary to make sure I did not have install problems. Unfortunately, the problem still occurs. Command line I am using is basically what you have suggested (except I just stripped off color profiles for simpli...

Many thanks for the quick reply. Just tried it on my Windows 7 computer. I am getting this error: convert.exe: no decode delegate for this image format `clip.svg' @ error/svg.c/ReadSVGImage/2955. I assume that means I don't have RSVG delegate support. "convert -list format" outputs the fol...

Hi, I've searched the forums for a solution but cannot find one, so sorry if I am repeating a question. I would really appreciate your help to fix my problem.
