We have some 300 dpi 24x36" greyscale scans of some of our plans. I am looking for an image editor that works with linux that is reasonably quick for working with these images. The fiels are saved as a tif image and are about 4 mb in size.
When I load one of them into gimp, it balloons to about 90mb in size and performance is extremely poor. I have verified that gimp is not converting the image to RGB, but it still is too slow to use on a daily basis.
If I load the image into windoze imaging, it stays as a 4mb image and performance is reasonable.
I went through the documentation for gimp, but I did not see anything that looks useful. Any suggestions?
just to make it complete...
what are your system specs?? FC1 or FC2, which kernel...
Also, is it possible for you to send one (or more) of these pics off list, so maybe I or someone else can verify it.
