I use this for years and it always worked properly.

Ui, with a imagemagick-converted image it works.


But imagemagick is not a solution to the problem, since
it produces extremely large Level-1 files. 

The tiff2ps-version is 68371 bytes long, since tiff2ps directly
wraps faxg4-compressed data into postscript.

The imagemagic-version is 2210299 bytes, which is 32 times as much.
Since I'm writing a book with many of those pictures, this is
too much.


But it was a good hint to find a starting point for debugging.

Yup,
