This is a massively wasteful approach. Likely the best compromise for your
needs is to grab a CGImage from the NSImage, and then generate the PNG from
that (either using NSBitmapImageRep or CGImageDestination). This takes care
of only creating a fresh CGImage instance if actually needed.

OK, I'll look into that, thanks. Since performance is not really a concern and if the implementation doesn't have any other weak spots that could cause legitimate trouble, it's a bit academic, though.

The point of the original question was to find out if -TIFFRepresentation is "allowed" to crash on special images and if there was a way to predict such a crash or avoid it.

Avoiding -TIFFRepresentation altogether would be a solution I guess.

Thanks all for the input on this!

Markus
