Dear All,

Today we are releasing Bio-Formats 5.2.1, a bug-fix release.

Improvements include fixes for two formats:

• Zeiss CZI
  • fixed NumberFormatException when the position object is not null but the values of child are null
• SimplePCI
  • made IniParser less stringent to allow reading of imperfectly formatted TIFF description headers

Other improvements:

• fixed stitching of file patterns in ImageJ to remove duplication of directory names in the file path
• added an option to bfconvert to allow creation of OME-TIFF without lookup tables
• addition of MetadataOnly elements containing no BinData or TiffData now handled via MetadataTools API in ImageInfo
• example code in developer docs is now tested via a new Maven module

Full details can be found at http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/supp ... s-new.html

The software is available at:
http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/bio-formats/5.2.1
and available for Fiji users from the Java-8 update site.
