[3dem] How to merge tif-files into an *.mrc-file

[Charlotte Hamngren Blomqvist]

Hello again,

I have some questions about the tf2mrc command which is a part of the iMOD package. The specifications say this:

NAME
       tif2mrc - Make a MRC file from TIFF image files.

SYNOPSIS
       tif2mrc [options]  TIFF_input_files...  MRC_output_file

DESCRIPTION
       tif2mrc takes a series of TIFF files and converts them into an MRC
       stack.  tif2mrc can also convert a single multi-page TIFF file to an
       MRC stack.
                             ….

I have 67 files named: seriesname_001.tif to seriesname_067.tif. How do I write for creating the mrc file? I tried writing in the file names of all the files at the “TIFF_input_files... ”-position, but it only seem to accept one name at the position. I also tried using the “cat” command for creating a tiff-stack of the images and then the mrc-file, but the resulting mrc-file is very small and doesn’t open in inspect3D.

Does this ring a bell?

Best,
Charlotte

Sounds like a good idea.
I will try the tif2mrc command.

Thanks!

Why not use imod or em2em to convert your tif files into an MRC stack that can then be imported into inspect 3D?

Dear Hivemind,



I want to use computer-generated projections in order to quantify our ET method. Now I want to load the projected images (tif) into the software using the concert/merge files option. I get the error message: "Operation failed Reason: Error reading file". What do I need to change in order for this to work? My version is v. 3.0.0.3494REL of Inspect3D.



Best regards
