Some images appear to be missing from CLAIMS Direct. Is there a way to access them?
Japanese records frequently contain multi-page TIFFs. Multi-page TIFFs are indicated when multiple id attributes point to the same file. Many TIFF readers do not read any image data beyond the first IFD (image file directory). Therefore, you may see only the first page.
For example, 2007280735.tif is a multi-page TIFF containing the front page (000001), the abstract drawing (000002), and the drawing sheets (000003-000012) referenced in the drawings section of the XML:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
$ tiffinfo 2007280735.tif |grep ImageDescription
ImageDescription: 000001 # front page
ImageDescription: 000002 # abstract drawing
ImageDescription: 000003 # drawing sheets
ImageDescription: 000004
ImageDescription: 000005
ImageDescription: 000006
ImageDescription: 000007
ImageDescription: 000008
ImageDescription: 000009
ImageDescription: 000010
ImageDescription: 000011
ImageDescription: 000012 |
The XML for this image shows that the file attributes point to the same physical file (2007280735.tif):
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
<img id="000003" he="101" wi="75" file="2007280735.tif" img-format="tif" img-content="drawing"/>
<img id="000004" he="65" wi="70" file="2007280735.tif" img-format="tif" img-content="drawing"/>
<!-- etc … ->
<img id="000012" he="33" wi="53" file="2007280735.tif" img-format="tif" img-content="drawing"/> |
