Just to simplify the test and also confirm we have the right example please run the following (with -DBUILD_TEST=ON): make x26c qt examples/c/x26c -dev tiffqt -o test.tiff -fam For that simplified test, I cannot confirm the issue on Debian stable with downloaded Qt-4.6.1. The example finishes almost instantly and gives good looking results with "display test.tiff.1" and "display test.tiff.2". I just checked http://qt.nokia.com/downloads, and I am actually behind the latest version which is 4.6.2. I suggest you try that to see if the issue disappears. Note, there is nothing particularly special about example 26 (which repeats the first page of example 4 in various languages) other than the Cyrillic fonts that it uses to render the Russian page of the example. It is possible you have some issue with your Cyrillic fonts, and Qt-4.6.2 might handle that in a much smoother way than your much older system version of Qt (4.5.1). Anyhow, the first thing to do is to try the latest Qt. Note, once you have downloaded and unpacked Qt-4.6.2, then all you have to do is put the 4.6.2 version of qmake on your PATH, and our build system should do the rest. Here is my current qmake version string: softw...@raven> qmake --version QMake version 2.01a Using Qt version 4.6.1 in /home/software/qtsdk-2010.01/qt/lib Alan __________________________ Alan W.
