Yes, sorry, that is where it had failed. With the latest Macports installed, 1.7 i think, I have LIBTIFF, Version 3.8.2 just as you do.

I reviewed the script when I got an error that it did not support multiple files and saw the tiffcp command which lead me to believe that where it was failing, I had did a manual merge with the tiffcp command which worked(I hadn't noticed the merged file in the hidden directory previously).

I tried to manually do a conversion and tiff2pdf failed with a simple tiff2pdf test.tff -o test.pdf command. Which produced that multiple files not supported error message along with "tiff2pdf [options] input.tiff" which since -o is an option I reversed it with success.

As for serpentium's edit, there was no need for me to do that. I might suggest that any errors that come about might be related to an outdated macports install, I know for one I never do an upgrade but every few months as it takes hours to compile all the new packages.

I would also commend you for the excellent output of the filters applied to the images before conversion. You will notice a huge difference between such manga as Berserk where it is lightly drawn. JE-Comics files were too light and yours came out at just the right darkness.

You sir, deserve a nice cold beer.
