Is this possible? How?

[Gimp-user] GIMP won't load LARGE TIF file
I had some plans scanned at Zephyr Printing. They scanned the Large drawings at 600DPI, 1 Bit Black, and saved the files. The pixel sizes of the drawings are 21600 x 33184. The files also have the Fax Group 4 designation. I can't load these drawings into Gimp 2.6, or view them with any Ubuntu Software. I have used Irfanview to view them, so at least I can rename each file according to what is located inside the file. Has anyone had trouble using with such a large sized file? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. lk -- lkraemer (via www.gimpusers.com) ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Hi, for...@gimpusers.com (2010-03-07 at 2045.09 +0100): I had some plans scanned at Zephyr Printing. They scanned the Large drawings at 600DPI, 1 Bit Black, and saved the files. The pixel sizes of the drawings are 21600 x 33184. [...] Has anyone had trouble using with such a large sized file? IIRC GIMP uses 5 bytes minimum per canvas pixel: 1 selection + 4 RGBA projection. So 21600 * 33184 * 5 = 3583872000, over 3GB just to show the image. This is without counting the real pixel data, I do not rememember which happens with paletized or grey images, they could use 1 byte per pixel of the single layer or require expansion to 3-4, so the real number could be 5GB (if someone uses this formula for other images, in multilayer case, add the pixels each one use, obviously). Which means you need a 64 bit computer and OS, a lot of memory and a really fast memory bus... and based in comments of a person than regularly works with 1 pixel images, a lot of patience too (6 patiences, as your case is 6 times bigger). Maybe GIMP is not the tool you need. GSR ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] getting text into a gimp photo?
I have a document in OO (a poem), and I'd like to get it into a gimp picture. I can't think of any way to do that. I can take a screen shot but the document is longer than will fit on a screen (it's about a screen and a half) and I want it to look like it's part of the picture (background is the picture of an open, blank book). I could retype it into a Gimp layer, but, aside from the time involved, Gimp doesn't have the typeface I want. Any other ways I might get this text to look as though it's a page in a book? -- Helen Etters using Linux, using openSUSE11.1 Gimp 2.6.2 ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
