27.SH NAME
28sgi2tiff \- create a
29.SM TIFF
30file from an
31.SM SGI
32image file
33.SH SYNOPSIS
34.B sgi2tiff
35[
36.I options
37]
38.I input.rgb
39.I output.tif
40.SH DESCRIPTION
41.I sgi2tiff
42converts a file in the
43.SM SGI
44image format to
45.SM TIFF.
46By default, the
47.SM TIFF
48image is created with data samples packed (\c
49.IR PlanarConfiguration =1),
50compressed with the Lempel-Ziv & Welch algorithm (\c
51.IR Compression =5),
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,
61.B "-c packbits"
62for the PackBits compression algorithm),
63.B "-c jpeg"
64for the baseline JPEG compression algorithm,
65.B "-c zip
66for the Deflate compression algorithm,
67and
68.B "\-c lzw"
69for Lempel-Ziv & Welch (the default).
70.TP
71.B \-p
72Explicitly select the planar configuration used in organizing
73data samples in the output image:
74.B "\-p contig"
75for samples packed contiguously, and
76.B "\-p separate"
77for samples stored separately.
78By default samples are packed.
79.TP
80.B \-r
81Write data with a specified number of rows per strip;
82by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip
83is approximately 8 kilobytes.
84.SH BUGS
85Does not record colormap information.
