The format has indeed changed.  The good news is that they apparently
fixed the files so they are valid TIFFs now.  The bad news is that the
TIFF image data now contain only a thumbnail and they apparently also
got better at hiding the important information in ‘holes’ in the file
that are not referenced from the standard TIFF data structures at all.

If the new file header looks like the old one but it's more complex it
would be quite difficult to reverse engineer.  Do you have the WinSPM
manual available?  The old one used to contain the file format
description in an appendix.  If you don't I would try writing to the
manufacturer – or you might try.
