In version 6.1.19.3 and 7.0.0.1 we have improved TIFF decoder for compatibility with TIFF files which contain not complete info about the image, now your image file can be loaded correctly.
Thanks. I did download the version 7, but still the pages are not shown correctly. It does not throw the initial exception as it used to. But now the exception is shown in as "red" text in the viewer page itself. You can try with the sample tiff file provided in my initial post.
Note: strange thing is that "ImagingDemo.exe" shows error, while "MultipageTiffDemo.exe" shows it correctly.
