I have looked at imview and evince but they do not seem to be able to open my BigTIFF files. Are there any viewers that can handle this file type?

  • Have you tried feh, or Gimp?

  • I got feh from the 14.04. repos: This is a BigTIFF file. This format not supported by this version of libtiff..

The very versatile ImageJ with the BioFormats plugin will do the job. Using virtual stacks you can also display multipage BTFs with more pages than fit into your memory.

  • This seems like a little bit of an overkill to me if you just want a quick glance at the content of a file...
