Hi Lewis,

Thanks very much for tracking that down!

I have added the SampleFormat tag to the areaDetector TIFF files, and now I can read signed 32-bit integer TIFFs with PIL.  It will not read unsigned 32-bit TIFFs.  By adding the SampleFormat tag I can now also successfully write 32-bit float and 64-bit double TIFF files as well.  Those can be read fine with IDL, and the 32-bit float files can also be read by PIL.

I will do testing with each areaDetector data type and report which applications (IDL, ImageJ, PIL) can read which data types.

Thanks again,
Mark

Looking further, there's a debug level variable in PIL which
sheds more light on things:

===
>>> import PIL.Image
>>> PIL.Image.DEBUG = 1
>>> im = PIL.Image.open("/tmp/im.tif")
tag: ImageWidth (256) - type: short (3) - value: (1023,)
tag: ImageLength (257) - type: short (3) - value: (1023,)
tag: BitsPerSample (258) - type: short (3) - value: (32,)
tag: Compression (259) - type: short (3) - value: (1,)
tag: PhotometricInterpretation (262) - type: short (3) - value: (1,)
tag: Make (271) - type: ascii (2) - value: Unknown
tag: Model (272) - type: ascii (2) - value: Unknown
tag: StripOffsets (273) - type: long (4) - value: (8,)
tag: SamplesPerPixel (277) - type: short (3) - value: (1,)
tag: RowsPerStrip (278) - type: short (3) - value: (1023,)
tag: StripByteCounts (279) - type: long (4) - value: (4186116,)
tag: PlanarConfiguration (284) - type: short (3) - value: (1,)
*** Summary ***
- compression: raw
- photometric_interpretation: 1
- planar_configuration: 1
- fill_order: 1
- size: (1023, 1023)
format key: ('II', 1, 1, 1, (32,), ())
- unsupported format
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File
"/opt3/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/PIL/Image.py",
line 1980, in open
    raise IOError("cannot identify image file")
IOError: cannot identify image file
===

Looking at TiffImagePlugin.py where it generates the "-
unsupported format" message, and comparing the output with an
SLS PILATUS image that works, I see the following difference:

=== /tmp/im.tif (bad) ===
format key: ('II', 1, 1, 1, (32,), ())
===

=== /tmp/sls-im.tif (good) ===
format key: ('II', 1, 2, 1, (32,), ())
===

The third format key value is different.  Looking at
TiffImagePlugin.py shows that the third value is the value of
the SAMPLEFORMAT (339) tag.  In the bad TIFF, that tag appears
to be missing, but in the good TIFF, it's present and the debug
output shows it:

=== /tmp/sls-im.tif (good) ===
tag: SampleFormat (339) - type: short (3) - value: (2,)
