I get a great deal of "Hey, our copier can email too!" type of items. Often these documents will arrive in my email as a .tif file. So, I say to myself "no problem." I open the tiff and I see what I generally expect.. a single layer with an image that looks like someone scanned a fax. Then I read the text of the email indicating there are change son several pages. Hmmm.... So I drag the Tiff to GraphicConverter and BINGO it's a multi-page TIFF containing many pages. Why can't Photoshop, at version 10, at least A) Alert the user that it's a multi-page tiff or better yet B) open the tiff converting pages to layers? Please consider adding some kind of support for opening multi-page tiffs. I don't really care if they can be saved from Photoshop, but they should at least be opened by Photoshop and not lose data. Or add a warning: "Our way cool, top-of-the-line, expensive, application that cost 50 to 100 times more than most shareware, unfortunately can't do something like open the multi-page tiff you've requested it open. Well, out flagship application can open it but it will delete much of the data. You're better off finding a $20 shareware application that supports multi-page tiff files, because Photoshop certainly does not."
