Yes, only with tiff files. Unfortunately, I cannot attach the files; the tiff files are from automotive, aerospace, and military sources, and I am not able to use gimp to edit out any branding in the title blocks. And since I have an nda with every source, I cannot share the files without at least removing the cage code, customer branding, etc. More unfortunately, these industries all use tiff as the sole means of document storage and transmission, so anyone working in the supply chain in these industries must be able to have some method of viewing, marking, and printing files in this format. I just figured that gimp would have added better support for these file types, as there is a pretty large number of people needing a good software solution for this. Don't get me wrong, it is great for jpgs and pngs and facebook pictures and touching up pictures from phones, it really is excellent for that. But it just doesn't stand up to more demanding tasks. Which is fine, I was just wanting to see if it had gotten better in the past few years. Ah, well.
