Listen to your intuitive inner voice and find what passion stirs your soul" Dr. Wayne W. Dyer -----Original Message----- From: Maine GeoNews [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Kelly Bellis Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2012 9:15 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Editing Mr. SID How do you edit images which arrive compressed by Mr. SID? Are you able to batch process a whole mess of Mr. SID images? The workaround I've been using - at least until something better is known - is to open the Mr. SID image in a Global Mapper project (projection defined), export a geotiff with world and prj files, opening the tif in Photoshop and there be able to do just about any type of editing barring a trim / crop, and then save (still in tif format). Of course whatever initial advantage there had been afforded by Lizardtech's unprecedented compression is lost. Thanks for sharing any trade secrets. Kelly -- V.
