conversion of tif image produces readable but garbled PDF. #66

I am trying to batch convert a set of images. Ultimately I need to append some together but before I get there I noticed some images display incorrectly in Foxit.
In Acrobat pro or acrobat reader when I try to open the PDF it says 'insufficient data for an image.'
File size is similar to other pdfs that look proper and were received from same source.

I am not surprised. Your TIFF file is a 2-color (so literally only black and white) TIFF encoded in CCITTGroup4. This is really hard to get right, so thank you for the test case!

Could you try converting your TIFF file with the version of img2pdf from git? Because for me that version work.

Thanks!

I released version 0.3.4 of img2pdf. It works for me with that version. Can you confirm or does your problem persist?

Since it's working for me, I'm closing this issue. Please re-open in case there is still a problem. Thanks!
