{{collapse(How to)
Batch process multiple images to convert to valid Baseline TIFF 6.0
# Open XnView MP and navigate to Folder containting the images to process
# select multiple images to process or select whole folder containing images (and subfolders with furter images)
# Right click and select 'Stapelverarbeitung' (or batch processing); or just press Strg/Ctrl+U
# In the Window set your output settings as in the attached screenshot (make sure to check 'Unterverzeichnisse beibehalten' and 'Dateidatum und -uhrzeit beibehalten' and 'Metadaten übernehmen'; 'Erweiterung beibehalten' only makes sense if file is already tiff)
!stapelverarbeitungXnViewMP.png!
# In the section 'Format' select 'TIF - TIFF Revision 6' and click on 'Einstellungen' (settings)
# In the settings window check to keep all metadata, the remaining settings can be left on default (see second screenshot)

Software for validation and conformance checking:
* tiff: DPF Manager (http://dpfmanager.org/)
{{collapse(Note)
Using DPF Manager Lite gives an error: https://github.com/EasyinnovaSL/DPFManager/issues/493
The workaround from the linked issue works. Thus, if it es e.g. installed in 'C:\Program Files\DPF Manager\app', from an command line (with java installed) just execute
<pre><code class="text">
java -jar "C:\Program Files\DPF Manager\app\DPF Manager-jfx.jar"
</code></pre>
}}
{{collapse(How to)
DPF Manager can be used to validate single files or whole folders. These are the steps to recursively check folders (with a screenshot):
# Start DPF Manager
# In the Files Check Tab click on Select and in the drop down either chose folder or tree view
# navigate to the folder you whish to check and select it
# Check the Box 'Recursive' right below the Folder input field
# Chose the 'Default' Tiff configuration for checking
# Start the check with a click on 'Full check'
# When the check is done the results can be viewed in the program (go to Reports tab) or can be found in the local user profile\DPF Manager\reports (click the folder icon in the Reports Tab)
