| 62 | This software provides support for the <i>Tag Image File Format</i> (TIFF), |
| 63 | a widely used format for storing image data. The latest version of |
| 64 | the TIFF specification is <a href="document.html">available on-line</a> |
| 65 | in several different formats. |
| 66 | </p> |
| 67 | <p> |
| 68 | Included in this software distribution is a library, libtiff, for |
| 69 | reading and writing TIFF, a small collection of tools for doing simple |
| 70 | manipulations of TIFF images on UNIX systems, |
| 71 | and documentation on the library and |
| 72 | tools. A small assortment of TIFF-related software for UNIX |
| 73 | that has been contributed by others is also included. |
| 74 | </p> |
| 75 | <p> |
| 76 | The library, along with associated tool programs, should handle most of |
| 77 | your needs for reading and writing TIFF images on 32- and 64-bit |
| 78 | machines. This software can also be used on older 16-bit systems |
| 79 | though it may require some effort and you may need to leave out some of |
| 80 | the compression support. |
| 81 | </p> |
| 82 | <p> |
| 83 | The software was orginally authored and maintained by Sam Leffler. |
| 84 | While he keeps a fatherly eye on the mailing list, he is no longer |
| 85 | responsible for day to day maintenance. |
| 86 | </p> |
| 87 | <p> |
| 88 | Questions should be sent to the TIFF mailing list: |
| 89 | <a href="mailto:tiff@lists.maptools.org">tiff@lists.maptools.org</a>, with |
| 90 | a subscription interface at |
| 91 | <a href="http://lists.maptools.org/mailman/listinfo/tiff">http://lists.maptools.org/mailman/listinfo/tiff</a>. |
