By default the colormap is inspected and if no colormap entry greater than 255 is found, the colormap is assumed to have only 8-bit values; otherwise 16-bit values (as required by the <FONT SIZE="-1">TIFF</FONT> specification) are assumed. The <B>-C</B> option can be used to explicitly specify the number of bits for colormap entries: <B>-C 8</B> for 8-bit values, <B>-C 16</B> for 16-bit values. </DL> <P> Options that affect the output file format are: <DL COMPACT> <DT><B>-p</B> <DD> Explicitly select the planar configuration used in organizing data samples in the output image: <B>-p contig</B> for samples packed contiguously, and <B>-p separate</B> for samples stored separately. By default samples are packed. <DT><B>-c</B> <DD> Use the specific compression algorithm to encoded image data in the output file: <B>-c packbits</B> for Macintosh Packbits, <B>-c lzw</B> for Lempel-Ziv & Welch, <B>-c zip</B> for Deflate, <B>-c none</B> for no compression. If no compression-related option is specified, the input file's compression algorithm is used. <DT><B>-r</B> <DD> Explicitly specify the number of rows in each strip of the output file. If the <B>-r</B> option is not specified, a number is selected such that each output strip has approximately 8 kilobytes of data in it. </DL> <A NAME="lbAF"> </A> <H2>BUGS</H2> Only 8-bit images are handled. <A NAME="lbAG"> </A> <H2>SEE ALSO</H2> <I><A HREF="tiffinfo+1.html">tiffinfo</A></I>(1), <I><A HREF="tiffcp+1.html">tiffcp</A></I>(1), <I><A HREF="tiffmedian+1.html">tiffmedian</A></I>(1), <I><A HREF="libtiff+3">libtiff</A></I>(3) <HR> <A NAME="index"> </A><H2>Index</H2> <DL> <DT><A HREF="#lbAB">NAME</A><DD> <DT><A HREF="#lbAC">SYNOPSIS</A><DD> <DT><A HREF="#lbAD">DESCRIPTION</A><DD> <DT><A HREF="#lbAE">OPTIONS</A><DD> <DT><A HREF="#lbAF">BUGS</A><DD> <DT><A HREF="#lbAG">SEE ALSO</A><DD> </DL> <HR> This document was created by <A HREF="index.html">man2html</A>, using the manual pages.<BR> Time: 01:31:47 GMT, November 23, 1999 </BODY> </HTML>
