| | 26 | .SH NAME |
| | 27 | gif2tiff \- create a |
| | 28 | .SM TIFF |
| | 29 | file from a GIF87 format image file |
| | 30 | .SH SYNOPSIS |
| | 31 | .B gif2tiff |
| | 32 | [ |
| | 33 | .I options |
| | 34 | ] |
| | 35 | .I input.gif |
| | 36 | .I output.tif |
| | 37 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| | 38 | .I Gif2tiff |
| | 39 | converts a file in the GIF87 format to |
| | 40 | .SM TIFF. |
| | 41 | The |
| | 42 | .SM TIFF |
| | 43 | image is created as a palette image, with samples |
| | 44 | compressed with the Lempel-Ziv & Welch algorithm (\c |
| | 45 | .IR Compression =5). |
| | 46 | These characteristics can overridden, or explicitly specified |
| | 47 | with the options described below. |
| | 48 | .SH OPTIONS |
| | 49 | .TP |
| | 50 | .B \-c |
| | 51 | Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data: |
| | 52 | .B "\-c none" |
| | 53 | for no compression, |
| | 54 | .B "\-c packbits" |
| | 55 | for the PackBits compression algorithm, |
| | 56 | .B "\-c zip" |
| | 57 | for the Deflate compression algorithm, |
| | 58 | and |
| | 59 | .B "\-c lzw" |
| | 60 | for Lempel-Ziv & Welch (the default). |
| | 61 | .TP |
| | 62 | .B \-r |
| | 63 | Write data with a specified number of rows per strip; |
| | 64 | by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip |
| | 65 | is approximately 8 kilobytes. |
| | 66 | .SH NOTES |
| | 67 | The program is based on Paul Haeberli's |
| | 68 | .I fromgif |
| | 69 | program which, in turn, is based on Marcel J.E. Mol's GIF reader. |
| | 70 | .SH BUGS |
| | 71 | Should have more options to control output format. |
