<P>
This software provides support for the <I>Tag Image File Format</I> (TIFF),
a widely used format for storing image data. The latest version of
the TIFF specification is <A HREF=document.html>available on-line</A>
in several different formats.
<P>
Included in this software distribution is a library, libtiff, for
reading and writing TIFF, a small collection of tools for doing simple
manipulations of TIFF images on UNIX systems,
and documentation on the library and
tools. A small assortment of TIFF-related software for UNIX
that has been contributed by others is also included.
<P>
The library, along with associated tool programs, should handle most of
your needs for reading and writing TIFF images on 32- and 64-bit
machines. This software can also be used on older 16-bit systems
though it may require some effort and you may need to leave out some of
the compression support.
<p> The software was orginally authored and maintained by Sam Leffler.
While he keeps a fatherly eye on the mailing list, he is no longer
responsible for day to day maintenance.
<p> Questions should be sent to the TIFF mailing list: <A
HREF="mailto:tiff@remotesensing.org">tiff@remotesensing.org</A>, with
a subscription interface at <a href="http://remotesensing.org/mailman/listinfo/tiff">http://remotesensing.org/mailman/listinfo/tiff</a>.<p>
