Can anyone tell me how to set the resolution unit when saving a tiff? I
set the dpi but it is unitless so doesn't register the dpi properly. I
am using the 1.5 alpha release as I couldn't set dpi at all prior to 1.5.
I set the dpi like so:
orig.save('/tmp/orig.tif',dpi=(300,300))
but haven't figured out how to get the unit correct.
Here is the original files info:
TIFF Directory at offset 0x8
Subfile Type: (0 = 0x0)
Image Width: 1359 Image Length: 1355
*Resolution: 300, 300 pixels/inch*
Bits/Sample: 8
Compression Scheme: None
Photometric Interpretation: min-is-black
Samples/Pixel: 1
Rows/Strip: 753
Planar Configuration: single image plane
and the saved one:
TIFF Directory at offset 0x8
Image Width: 1359 Image Length: 1355
* Resolution: 300, 300 (unitless)*
Bits/Sample: 8
Compression Scheme: None
Photometric Interpretation: min-is-black
Rows/Strip: 1355
Planar Configuration: single image plane
