I think you are right.
Documentation says:

aType is the type name corresponding to the value of the 
CFBundleTypeName entry in the document type's Info.plist dictionary.

Given the entry:
            <key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
            <string>TIFF</string>


It should still be TIFF!

However, this method is deprecated and called by dataOfType:error: for 
which the documentation just says
typeName: The string that identifies the document type.


Which is much more generic! But thanks to your hint I put a breakpoint 
and I see "public.tiff" or "public.jpeg"

So, Wolfgang is better than Apple's doc which is "unclear" to say the best!

Fix committed, it works! Thanks!

PS: how is UTI support in GNUstep perhaps it would  make sense to add 
it? Or is it already there and ProjectCenter is obsolete and doesn't 
support it? In case I shall update it.
