Description From 2017-07-23 09:25:27
$ convert rose: rose: rose.tif
$ tiff2ps -a rose.tif > rose.ps
rose.tif: Inconsistent value of es: 0.

$ ls -l rose.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 jeff jeff   835 Jul 23 15:55 rose.ps
-rw-r--r-- 1 jeff jeff 19864 Jul 23 15:55 rose.tif

$ tiff2ps -a rose.tif > rose.ps
 -e and -a: Warning: Cannot generate Encapsulated Postscript for multiple
images.
rose.tif: Inconsistent value of es: 0.
rose.tif: Inconsistent value of es: 0.

$ ls -l rose.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 jeff jeff  1471 Jul 23 16:22 rose.ps
-rw-r--r-- 1 jeff jeff 19864 Jul 23 15:55 rose.tif

It looks as though tiff2ps is defaulting to EPS, indicating that the -p option
should make it work, but:

$ tiff2ps -ap rose.tif > rose.ps
rose.tif: Inconsistent value of es: 0.
rose.tif: Inconsistent value of es: 0.

$ ls -l rose.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 jeff jeff  1471 Jul 23 16:24 rose.ps
-rw-r--r-- 1 jeff jeff 19864 Jul 23 15:55 rose.tif

This is LIBTIFF, Version 4.0.8, from Debian testing

can you check with the latest release and attach the .tiff file you're trying
to convert to PS ?

Bugzilla is no longer used for tracking libtiff issues. Remaining open tickets,
such as this one, have been migrated to the libtiff GitLab instance at
https://gitlab.com/libtiff/libtiff/issues .

The migrated tickets have their summary prefixed with [BZ#XXXX] where XXXX is
the initial Bugzilla issue number.
