output file: <b>none</b> for no compression, <b>packbits</b>

Welch compression, <b>zip</b> for Deflate compression,
<b>g3</b> for CCITT Group 3 (T.4) compression, and <b>g4</b>

Group 3 compression can be specified together with several
T.4-specific options: <b>1d</b> for 1-dimensional encoding,
<b>2d</b> for 2-dimensional encoding, and <b>fill</b> to
force each encoded scanline to be zero-filled so that the
terminating EOL code lies on a byte boundary. Group
3-specific options are specified by appending a
``:''-separated list to the ``g3'' option; e.g. <b>-c
2002-10-07 09:47:36 -04:00
g3:2d:fill</b> to get 2D-encoded data with byte-aligned EOL
2003-11-27 10:07:01 -05:00

<small>LZW</small> compression can be specified together
2002-10-07 09:47:36 -04:00
with a <i>predictor</i> value. A predictor value of 2 causes
1999-11-22 23:29:23 -05:00
each scanline of the output image to undergo horizontal
2002-10-07 09:47:36 -04:00
differencing before it is encoded; a value of 1 forces each
scanline to be encoded without differencing. LZW-specific
2003-11-27 10:07:01 -05:00
options are specified by appending a ``:''-separated list to
the ``lzw'' option; e.g. <b>-c lzw:2</b> for

differencing.</td></table>

Specify the bit fill order to use in writing output data. By
default, <i>tiffdither</i> will create a new file with the
same fill order as the original. Specifying <b>-f

tag set to <small>LSB2MSB ,</small> while <b>-f msb2lsb</b>
