[Image-SIG] IOError: image file is truncated, 312 bytes left in buffer

[Paul Keeley]

I am trying to convert a BMP file to TIF as follows:

img = Image.open(filename.bmp)
img.save(filename.tif)

every time it displays the error
IOError: image file is truncated, 312 bytes left in buffer

If I insert a img.show() between the two lines then sometimes it works and
sometimes it does not.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
