37 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
38 | .I Tiff2bw | |
39 | converts an | |
40 | .SM RGB | |
41 | or Palette color | |
42 | .SM TIFF | |
43 | image to a greyscale image by | |
44 | combining percentages of the red, green, and blue channels. | |
45 | By default, output samples are created by taking | |
46 | 28% of the red channel, 59% of the green channel, and 11% of | |
47 | the blue channel. | |
48 | To alter these percentages, the | |
49 | .BR \-R , | |
50 | .BR \-G , | |
51 | and | |
52 | .BR \-B | |
53 | options may be used. | |
54 | .SH OPTIONS | |
55 | .TP | |
56 | .B \-c | |
57 | Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data: | |
58 | .B "\-c none" | |
59 | for no compression, | |
80ed523f | 60 | .B "\-c packbits" |
8414a40c | 61 | for the PackBits compression algorithm, |
80ed523f | 62 | .B "\-c zip |
8414a40c | 63 | for the Deflate compression algorithm, |
80ed523f | 64 | .B "\-c g3 |
8414a40c | 65 | for the CCITT Group 3 compression algorithm, |
80ed523f | 66 | .B "\-c g4 |
8414a40c VZ |
67 | for the CCITT Group 4 compression algorithm, |
68 | and | |
69 | .B "\-c lzw" | |
70 | for Lempel-Ziv & Welch (the default). | |
71 | .TP | |
72 | .B \-r | |
73 | Write data with a specified number of rows per strip; | |
74 | by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip | |
75 | is approximately 8 kilobytes. | |
76 | .TP | |
77 | .B \-R | |
78 | Specify the percentage of the red channel to use (default 28). | |
79 | .TP | |
80 | .B \-G | |
81 | Specify the percentage of the green channel to use (default 59). | |
82 | .TP | |
83 | .B \-B | |
84 | Specify the percentage of the blue channel to use (default 11). | |
