Another PictView post

I was converting PS to SEP for additional DjVu processing with gsdjvu (patched GhostScript with DjVu support) and wanted to see resulting SEP file contents with Internal viewer and then PictView tried to open the file. I checked and saw that PictView is by default associated with SEP file extension. However it can't read the file.

So i was curious is PictView supposed to support this segmentation file, and if not what SEP extension stands for in AS?

"SEP - CMYK Separated Images in TIFF 6.0 File Format"

"PVW32.dll and PVW32Cnv.dll 1.57"

OK, thanks. So supported format is TIFF file with SEP extension, and has nothing to do with separated image format used for DjVu creation

Correct. And IIRC this was used by an old version of CorelDraw! in the 90's. I am not sure whethere still really a preferred format/suffix there.
Therefore, the next version of PV shipped with the next version of AS (2.55?2.60?3.00?) will silently refuse SEP files if of unknown structure.
