Import TIFF - only first page is opened

[Christian Luidolt]

I've a TIFF image as a scan result of an Canon multifunction copier station. The example TIFF image contains two pages, but in Affinity products only the first page can be opened.

There is already a similar thread in the older feedback forum

Thanks,

PS: Tested with Affinity Photo/Designer/Publisher 1.7.2.471

Hi Christian,

If you see this post.  It explains about sub files in TIFF files (pages).  We are following the standards of the file format, as in we load the first page, which is all that's really required.  However, you've made this post in the correct place on the Forums and we don't normally reply to Feature Requests but i thought i'd offer you some explanation as to why we only open the 1st page of the file.

The easiest thing is to download Irfanview (free). Open your tiff file in that, then you can either export it as separate pages, or save it as a PDF, so you still have a multipage document that you can open in Affinity.

thank you for you ansers,

@stokerg - I understand that this is an optional part of the specification - but nevertheless it would be nice to be able such files from Affinity products - so I still hope that someday this feature will be implemented.
