32[
33.I options

35.I "file1.tif file2.tif"
36.SH DESCRIPTION
37.I Tiffcmp
38compares the tags and data in two files created according
39to the Tagged Image File Format, Revision 6.0.
40The schemes used for compressing data in each file
41are immaterial when data are compared\-data are compared on
42a scanline-by-scanline basis after decompression.
43Most directory tags are checked; notable exceptions are:
44.IR GrayResponseCurve ,
45.IR ColorResponseCurve ,
46and
47.IR ColorMap
48tags.
49Data will not be compared if any of the
50.IR BitsPerSample ,
51.IR SamplesPerPixel ,
52or
53.I ImageWidth
54values are not equal.
55By default,
56.I tiffcmp
57will terminate if it encounters any difference.
