Scott,
Thanks for joining the IPP FAX telecon this morning. I have a few
questions:
1. As you indicated on the telecon, the IEEE-ISTO may need to get a license
for TIFF from Adobe in order to progress our Universal Image Format (UIF)
standard, which builds on TIFF/FX, correct?
2. You indicated that that license might have some constraints. What sort
of constraints?
3. Are there any changes to the UIF document that would avoid the need for a
license from Adobe or allow us to get one?
For example, not using the image/tiff MIME Media type which confuses
existing TIFF readers into thinking they can understand the contents, but to
use a new MIME Media type.
Thanks,
Tom

Greetings all....
I am the Adobe point of contact for the use of TIFF.
I joined the mailing list so I could assist your group in its use of
TIFF as the basis of some of your work.
As I indicated during this morning conference call, I think there are
issues in your use of TIFF that require further examination.
I look forward to working with you on this.......Scott
