Hi Elle,

After checking the sample, there is a small glitch in tifficc which I 
will fix in next release. The glitch is the "of 9 channels" part of 
error message.  The error diagnostic should be only "unsupported color 
space". You got this because TIFF files does not support, at least not 
directly, XYZ spaces. See

Thanks for reporting

Regards

Marti
