| | 53 | <p><i>tiff2ps</i> reads <small>TIFF</small> images and |
| | 54 | writes PostScript or Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) on the |
| | 55 | standard output. By default, <i>tiff2ps</i> writes |
| | 56 | Encapsulated PostScript for the first image in the specified |
| | 57 | <small>TIFF</small> image file.</p> |
| | 58 | <!-- INDENTATION --> |
| | 59 | <p>By default, <i>tiff2ps</i> will generate PostScript that |
| | 60 | fills a printed area specified by the <small>TIFF</small> |
| | 61 | tags in the input file. If the file does not contain |
| | 62 | <i>XResolution</i> or <i>YResolution</i> tags, then the |
| | 63 | printed area is set according to the image dimensions. The |
| | 64 | <b>−w</b> and <b>−h</b> options (see below) can |
| | 65 | be used to set the dimensions of the printed area in inches; |
| | 66 | overriding any relevant <small>TIFF</small> tags.</p> |
| | 67 | <!-- INDENTATION --> |
| | 68 | <p>The PostScript generated for <small>RGB,</small> palette, |
| | 69 | and <small>CMYK</small> images uses the <i>colorimage</i> |
| | 70 | operator. The PostScript generated for greyscale and bilevel |
| | 71 | images uses the <i>image</i> operator. When the |
| | 72 | <i>colorimage</i> operator is used, PostScript code to |
| | 73 | emulate this operator on older PostScript printers is also |
| | 74 | generated. Note that this emulation code can be very |
| | 75 | slow.</p> |

| | 503 | <p>Because PostScript does not support the notion of a |
| | 504 | colormap, 8-bit palette images produce 24-bit PostScript |
| | 505 | images. This conversion results in output that is six times |
| | 506 | bigger than the original image and which takes a long time |
| | 507 | to send to a printer over a serial line. Matters are even |
| | 508 | worse for 4-, 2-, and 1-bit palette images.</p> |
