Package: djvubind
Version: 1.2.1-3
Severity: important
Hi, Clint.
When trying to create a book with some tiff files that were (very
laboriously) generated by scantailor (with lots of fine-tuning by hand), I
get the following, very non-informative stack trace from djvubind, when I
have files that are "mixed mode":
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
(...)
msg: s-260_1L.tif: Bitonal image but with a depth greater than 1. Modifying
image depth.
msg: s-260_2R.tif: Bitonal image but with a depth greater than 1. Modifying
image depth.
* Performing optical character recognition.
OCR is disabled and will be skipped.
* Encoding all information to /tmp/solutions/out/book.djvu.

Digging through, I found that the problem is that the call to cjb2 above is
failing when it is fed the file temp_textual.tif which is supposed to be
only bilevel (that is only black and white).
I found (and tested successfully) that temp_textual.tif isn't being
generated as cjb2 expects because the call to convert that created it isn't
creating a bilevel image.
Adding the option -depth 1 to the line that precedes the call to cjb2 fixes
this. I am including a patch that I tested here.
It would be super nice if you could upload a new version with this change
applied, since djvubind very frequently dies when I try to convert some
books.
Thanks for packaging djvubind,
Rogério Brito.

Subject: [PATCH] djvubind/encode: Force file to cjb2 to be only black and
white.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Note above that convert (Debian's at least), even if asked to
create a monochrome tif will still generate one with 8 bits per
color and cj2b will barf, telling us (correctly) that it is not in
a format that it accepts.
The -depth 1 forces convert to generate a bilevel grayscale tif.
An alternative to using -depth 1 would be to specify the extension
as .pbm, but we would, then, need to modify the name of the file
in more places.
