PCL FITS Format Support: Error
« on: 2016 September 13 03:22:58 »
Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has encountered the below error when opening a FITS file?

"PCL FITS Format Support: The FITS file contains no readable image:"

Any help would be most appreciated.

Kind regards,
Saeed

Sorry haven't seen that error before.  Have you tried to open the file with another application?  If you're of a technical bent it might be worth poking around in the FITS headers (the FITS format is pretty simple.)

Cheers,
Rick.

Most likely the file was saved using a non-standard compression.
