40.SH DESCRIPTION
41.I bmp2tiff
42converts a Microsoft Windows Device Independent Bitmap image file to
43.SM TIFF.
44If several input BMP files are being specified the multipage
45.SM TIFF
46output file will be created. By default, the
47.SM TIFF
48image is created with data samples packed (\c
49.IR PlanarConfiguration =1),
50compressed with the PackBits algorithm (\c
80ed523f 51.IR Compression =32773),
8414a40c
VZ
52and with each strip no more than 8 kilobytes.
53These characteristics can overridden, or explicitly specified
54with the options described below.
55.SH OPTIONS
56.TP
57.B \-c
58Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data:
59.B "\-c none"
60for no compression,
80ed523f 61.B "\-c packbits"
8414a40c 62for the PackBits compression algorithm (the default),
80ed523f 63.B "\-c jpeg"
8414a40c 64for the baseline JPEG compression algorithm,
80ed523f 65.B "\-c zip"
8414a40c
VZ
66for the Deflate compression algorithm,
67and
68.B "\-c lzw"
69for Lempel-Ziv & Welch.
70.TP
80ed523f 71.BI \-r " number"
8414a40c
VZ
72Write data with a specified number of rows per strip;
73by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip
74is approximately 8 kilobytes.
