viewing Jpgs and tiffs in the same folder
« on: April 14, 2011, 08:22:26 AM »
Using Intel i5 mac running 10.6.3 and photomechanic 4.6.6.
I have a file with jpgs from a canon camera along with Raw tiff files from a Phase One digital back.
Photomechanic views the jpgs from the canon camera, but does not show the tiffs from the Phase One. How do I get photomechanic to read both type files at the same time?

You can't.  P1 TIFF files do not have previews in them.  They're a proprietary RAW file format that do not include previews.  We would have to write our own RAW renderer without any documentation provided by the manufacturer.
