Hi Melissa, 

Let me to get back to you regarding the series number topic. 
You probably already know, but for those people that may face the same problem in the future, it only arises when using:  run("Bio-Formats Importer",op);

Changing the code to the Bio-Formats Macro Extensions walks around the graphical Java bug

Best regards,

Rubén
