Hey #digipres & #jhove specialists!
I can't understand why TIFF-hul-61 is an error (https://github.com/openpreserve/jhove/wiki#tiff-hul-61).
Value 6 for Compression is JPEG. But the TIFF 6.0 specification includes it as a valid compression scheme, doesn't it? Why and where would it be "deprecated"???
Sorry to jump in very late, but I think that, though all of @anj points are very valid - pdfcpu seems to be more consistent, and produce less false positives and less false negatives than JHOVE, the latter has a big advantage: its wiki. If we keep on documenting issues and remediation, that would be a serious advantage.
(And #JHOVE's maintainers are nicer than pdfcpu's 😜 .)
The result is not perfect - still some overlapping characters - but at least it can be read in Adobe Reader!
I will probably file a new issue for #JHOVE. I'm always wondering what benefit we get from a new test, but here it seems justified for two main reasons:
a) It has a severe impact on rendition,: viewers, esp. Adobe Reader, do not cope well with,
b) There is a possible remediation.
Documenting false positives returned by #JHOVE is a silent task, but a useful one probably??

Digital preservation at the coalface: or how I learned that glamping doesn’t always involve the vast wilderness
by @beet_keeperThe last Friday of March this year, I was invited by Elizabeth Kata at the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) to give a presentation at the Vienna Institute for Historical Research (Institut für Österreichische Geschichtsforschung). I don’t have a transcript for that day or a complete set of notes that I followed, but here is the essence of the talk. In it, Reflecting on community and self-development in digital preservation; I touch upon, among other things, community, recognizing privilege, and finding value and meaning in digital records.
I began and ended the talk by singing two Waiata, an important part of my previous role at Archives New Zealand.
Te Manaaki taonga
Te Manaaki taonga
E whakarauika ana I te tini e
E ranga ana I te tira
Hei huruhuru moo te manu ka rere
Hei Poutuumaaro mo te kainga
Tuituinga koorero tuituinga tangata
Manaaki taaonga manaaki tangata
(Tane chant: Tuituinga koorero tuituinga tangata.
Manaaki taaonga manaki tangata – Hi!)
(Last time Wahine join chant: manaaki tangata – Hi!)
The value/prestige in protecting treasures
They gather/connect the people like the gathering of fish
They weave the party/masses
To be like feathers of a bird that takes flight
To be a strong pillar for our home
The sewing of stories, the sewing of people
The protection of treasures the protection of people
