Well, did a very quick test here, and without Jeremias' change, any TIFF that is produced by Preview indeed fails with the message you provided earlier. Seems the issue is isolated to OS X. I guess one important thing to check on the side of XMLGraphics is whether the native OS X TIFF reader has peculiarities which make it undetectable somehow.

Checked closer, and the result of ImageIO.getReaderMimeTypes() does not contain "image/tiff" as a supported type on my system, so it's normal behavior on the side of XG Commons. Browsed around a bit more, and the impression I'm getting is that ImageIO TIFF support was available at one point. I read posts mentioning tiff as a natively supported type on Java 1.4.2. Then again, most posts I found indicate nothing but trouble and security issues. The latest I could gather was that it was 'currently unavailable, but put on the planning', but as far as I could tell, not really with the highest priority...


Cheers
