Curtis,

I appreciate the reply.  I think the base format is Huffman but I'm not
sure.  I do know they are fax images.  Not sure if that helps.  Is
Bio-Formats a plug-in?  Thanks

Kyle

Hi Kyle,

There is some logic in Bio-Formats to handle RLE (specifically TIFF
PackBits, as well as the QuickTime run-length encoding scheme, which is
kind of messy). What format exactly are you talking about? Is it just
raw RLE-encoded pixels? Or part of another file format?
