Hi, I plan to use PIL in an external method to retrieve Images from de ZODB and transform them to PIL Images. When I use the following code I've got an error which basically says: "Not enough image data" This seems to be a PIL error, not a Zope's one, but I really can't understand what the problem is, except that I don't know what mode parameter to pass to fromstring(), I've tried "1", "P", "RGB" etc... but without luck: --- CUT --- import PIL.Image # get the logo GIF Image from the ZODB # This object exists and is OK when viewed from the ZMI logo = getattr(self, "logo") imgdata = logo.data if type(imgdata) is not type('') : temp = '' while imgdata is not None : temp = temp + imgdata.data imgdata = imgdata.next imgdata = temp MyPILImage = PIL.Image.fromstring("1", (logo.width, logo.height), imgdata) --- CUT --- I'm really not sure about the two first parameters that the PIL.Image.fromstring() function need, the first one is the mode, the second is the size. Could someone with a PIL+Zope experience show me a code snippet to convert Zope Image objects (in any format) to PIL Images ? Thanks in advance. PS: I use Zope 2.3.2 and PIL 1.1.1 Jerome Alet - alet@unice.fr - http://cortex.unice.fr/~jerome Fac de Medecine de Nice http://wwwmed.unice.fr Tel: (+33) 4 93 37 76 30 Fax: (+33) 4 93 53 15 15 28 Avenue de Valombrose - 06107 NICE Cedex 2 - FRANCE
