25 | .TH RAS2TIFF 1 "November 2, 2005" "libtiff" | |
26 | .SH NAME | |
27 | ras2tiff \- create a | |
28 | .SM TIFF | |
29 | file from a Sun rasterfile | |
30 | .SH SYNOPSIS | |
31 | .B ras2tiff | |
32 | [ | |
33 | .I options | |
34 | ] | |
35 | .I input.ras | |
36 | .I output.tif | |
37 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
38 | .I ras2tiff | |
39 | converts a file in the Sun rasterfile format to | |
40 | .SM TIFF. | |
41 | By default, the | |
42 | .SM TIFF | |
43 | image is created with data samples packed (\c | |
44 | .IR PlanarConfiguration =1), | |
45 | compressed with the Lempel-Ziv & Welch algorithm (\c | |
46 | .IR Compression =5), | |
47 | and with each strip no more than 8 kilobytes. | |
48 | These characteristics can overridden, or explicitly specified | |
49 | with the options described below. | |
50 | .PP | |
51 | Any colormap information in the rasterfile is carried over to the | |
52 | .SM TIFF | |
53 | file by including a | |
54 | .I Colormap | |
55 | tag in the output file. | |
56 | If the rasterfile has a colormap, the | |
57 | .I PhotometricInterpretation | |
58 | tag is set to 3 (palette); | |
59 | otherwise it is set to 2 (RGB) if the depth | |
60 | is 24 or 1 (min-is-black) if the depth is not 24. | |
61 | .SH OPTIONS | |
62 | .TP | |
63 | .B \-c | |
64 | Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data: | |
65 | .B "\-c none" | |
66 | for no compression, | |
80ed523f | 67 | .B "\-c packbits" |
8414a40c | 68 | for the PackBits compression algorithm, |
80ed523f | 69 | .B "\-c jpeg" |
8414a40c | 70 | for the baseline JPEG compression algorithm, |
80ed523f | 71 | .B "\-c zip |
8414a40c VZ |
72 | for the Deflate compression algorithm, |
73 | and | |
74 | .B "\-c lzw" | |
75 | for Lempel-Ziv & Welch (the default). | |
76 | .TP | |
77 | .B \-r | |
78 | Write data with a specified number of rows per strip; | |
79 | by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip | |
80 | is approximately 8 kilobytes. | |
81 | .SH BUGS | |
82 | Does not handle all possible rasterfiles. | |
83 | In particular, | |
84 | .I ras2tiff | |
85 | does not handle run-length encoded images. | |
