<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>tiffmedian</b>
[ <i>options</i> ] <i>input.tif output.tif</i></p>
<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><i>tiffmedian</i>
applies the median cut algorithm to an <small>RGB</small>
image in <i>input.tif</i> to generate a palette image that
is written to <i>output.tif</i>. The generated colormap has,
by default, 256 entries. The image data is quantized by
mapping each pixel to the closest color values in the
colormap.</p>
<a name="OPTIONS"></a>
<h2>OPTIONS</h2>
<table width="100%" border=0 rules="none" frame="void"
cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

<td width="8%"></td>
<td width="78%">
<p style="margin-top: 1em" valign="top">Specify the
compression to use for data written to the output file:
<b>none</b> for no compression, <b>packbits</b> for PackBits
compression, <b>lzw</b> for Lempel-Ziv &amp; Welch
compression, and <b>zip</b> for Deflate compression. By
default <i>tiffmedian</i> will compress data according to
the value of the <i>Compression</i> tag found in the source
file.</p> </td>
</table>
<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em"><small>LZW</small>
compression can be specified together with a
<i>predictor</i> value. A predictor value of 2 causes each
scanline of the output image to undergo horizontal
differencing before it is encoded; a value of 1 forces each
scanline to be encoded without differencing. LZW-specific
options are specified by appending a
&lsquo;&lsquo;:&rsquo;&rsquo;-separated list to the
&lsquo;&lsquo;lzw&rsquo;&rsquo; option; e.g. <b>&minus;c
lzw:2</b> for <small>LZW</small> compression with horizontal
differencing.</p>
