NAME

bmp2tiff − create a TIFF file from a Microsoft Windows Device Independent Bitmap image file

SYNOPSIS

bmp2tiff [ options ] input.bmp output.tiff

DESCRIPTION

bmp2tiff converts a Microsoft Windows Device Independent Bitmap image file to TIFF. By default, the TIFF image is created with data samples packed (PlanarConfiguration=1), compressed with the PackBits algorithm (Compression=32773), and with each strip no more than 8 kilobytes. These characteristics can overridden, or explicitly specified with the options described below.

OPTIONS

−c

Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data: −c none for no compression, -c packbits for the PackBits compression algorithm (the default), -c jpeg for the baseline JPEG compression algorithm, -c zip for the Deflate compression algorithm, and −c lzw for Lempel-Ziv & Welch.

−r <number>

Write data with a specified number of rows per strip; by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip is approximately 8 kilobytes.
