<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>

<I>ras2tiff</I>

converts a file in the Sun rasterfile format to
<FONT SIZE="-1">TIFF.</FONT>
By default, the
<FONT SIZE="-1">TIFF</FONT>
image is created with data samples packed (<I>PlanarConfiguration</I>=1),

compressed with the Lempel-Ziv &amp; Welch algorithm (<I>Compression</I>=5),

and with each strip no more than 8 kilobytes.
These characteristics can overriden, or explicitly specified
with the options described below.
<P>

Any colormap information in the rasterfile is carried over to the
<FONT SIZE="-1">TIFF</FONT>
file by including a
<I>Colormap</I>

tag in the output file.
If the rasterfile has a colormap, the
<I>PhotometricInterpretation</I>

tag is set to 3 (palette);
otherwise it is set to 2 (RGB) if the depth
is 24 or 1 (min-is-black) if the depth is not 24.
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>

<DL COMPACT>
<DT><B>-c</B>

<DD>
Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data:
<B>-c none</B>

for no compression,
<B>-c packbits</B>

for the PackBits compression algorithm,
<B>-c jpeg</B>

for the baseline JPEG compression algorithm,
<B>-c zip</B>

for the Deflate compression algorithm,
and
<B>-c lzw</B>

for Lempel-Ziv &amp; Welch (the default).
<DT><B>-r</B>

<DD>
Write data with a specified number of rows per strip;
by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip
is approximately 8 kilobytes.
</DL>
<A NAME="lbAF">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>BUGS</H2>

Does not handle all possible rasterfiles.
In particular, 
<I>ras2tiff</I>

does not handle run-length encoded images.
