.SH NAME
|
|

|
|
.SM TIFF
|
|
file from a
|
|
.SM PPM
|
|
image file
|

.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B ppm2tiff
|
|
[
|
|
.I options
|

|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I ppm2tiff
|
|
converts a file in the
|
|
.SM PPM
|
|
image format to
|
|
.SM TIFF.
|
|
By default, the
|
|
.SM TIFF
|
|
image is created with data samples packed (\c
|
|
.IR PlanarConfiguration =1),
|
|
compressed with the Lempel-Ziv & Welch algorithm (\c
|
|
.IR Compression =5),
|
|
and with each strip no more than 8 kilobytes.
|
|
These characteristics can be overridden, or explicitly specified
|
|
with the options described below
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the
|
|
.SM PPM
|
|
file contains greyscale data, then the
|
|
.I PhotometricInterpretation
|
|
tag is set to 1 (min-is-black),
|
|
otherwise it is set to 2 (RGB).
|
|
.PP
|
|
If no
|
|
.SM PPM
|
|
file is specified on the command line,
|
|
.I ppm2tiff
|
|
will read from the standard input.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-c
|
|
Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data:
|
|
.B "\-c none"
|
|
for no compression,
|
|
.B "-c packbits"
|
|
for the PackBits compression algorithm (the default),
|
|
.B "-c jpeg"
|
|
for the baseline JPEG compression algorithm,
|
|
.B "-c zip
|
|
for the Deflate compression algorithm,
|
|
and
|
|
.B "\-c lzw"
|
|
for Lempel-Ziv & Welch compression.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-r
|
|
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.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-R
|
|
Mark the resultant image to have the specified
|
|
X and Y resolution (in dots/inch).
