Symptoms

Can not expose a tile-composed one-bit TIFF file created by Screen2Go.

Note: Only some third-party vendors experience this problem.

Cause

In Brisque version 3.0.38, by default, Screen2Go creates a one-bit TIFF file as a strip. In Brisque version 4.0, by default, Screen2Go creates a one-bit TIFF file as a tile.

Solution

Install Brisque version 4.0.97.22. The Screen2Go application included in this version creates one-bit TIFF files as strip-composed by default.

Or,

Install the command line-based TileOrStrip utility to switch between strip or tile one-bit TIFF output created by Screen2Go.

To install the TileOrStrip utility for Brisque 4.0.97.18:

1. From the FTP location: ftp://cilftp.creo.com/pws/brisque/download/V4/

9. Select the Exit option.
