Those tiff examples are misleading. iText now supports tiff natively just like gif, png, etc. If you want to get more than the first page see the example read_tiffs.java at itextpdf.sf.net.

Subject: [iText-questions] Converting certain .TIFF Images to .PDF

I am attempting to convert .TIFF images to .PDF and have had good success modeling the code after the example 12 in the tutorial.
 
I have run into a problem converting one type of generated TIFF (I don't know the originating software) that was created using a large format scanner.  The TIFF image has multiple Strips (in this case 12).  I am able to read the IDF to get the strip offsets, and byte counts and all seems fine.  When the .PDF gets generated - I can only see the first strip - the rest is garbage.  I noticed that there seems to be (# of Strips * 8) bytes at the tail end of the physical TIFF that I cannot identify. 
 
If I read to the end of the Strips I get the same error as if I read to the end of the file (including the extra bytes).  In newer Acrobat readers - It states not enough data to create the image and fails.  In older readers Version 3 - It shows the single strip + garbage (same is true for native MAC viewer).
 
Anyone have any Ideas?  I have included a sample file.
Thanks in advance
Travis
