Comment 14 for bug 444907

This also occurs with TIFF files or presumably any other file format. Evince seems to be processing files based on file extension rather than magic. I was just very confused by processing files with "gm convert +adjoin $i.pdf $i.tiff" (from within a for loop) and being unable to open the resulting single-page tiffs.

After a few seconds I said "oh no, you've got to be kidding me - I hope it's not doing a Windows thing" and ran:
export a=0; for i in `ls *.tiff.* | sort -n -t'.' -k 3`; do export a=$((a+1)); mv $i ${i/.tiff.*/.$a.tiff}; done
to rename the files from (ex.) foo.tiff.1 to foo.1.tiff

I'm on Natty-beta with evince-2.32.0-0ubuntu12
