<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<I>thumbnail</I>
is a program written to show how one might use the
SubIFD tag (#330) to store thumbnail images.
<I>thumbnail</I>
copies a
<FONT SIZE="-1">TIFF</FONT>
Class F facsimile file to the output file
and for each image an 8-bit greyscale
<I>thumbnail sketch</I>.
The output file contains the thumbnail image with the associated
full-resolution page linked below with the SubIFD tag.
<P>
By default, thumbnail images are 216 pixels wide by 274 pixels high.
Pixels are calculated by sampling and filtering the input image
with each pixel value passed through a contrast curve.
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
<DL COMPACT>
<DT><B>-w</B>
<DD>
Specify the width of thumbnail images in pixels.
<DT><B>-h</B>
<DD>
Specify the height of thumbnail images in pixels.
<DT><B>-c</B>
<DD>
Specify a contrast curve to apply in generating the thumbnail images.
By default pixels values are passed through a linear contrast curve
that simply maps the pixel value ranges.
Alternative curves are:
<B>exp50</B>
for a 50% exponential curve,
<B>exp60</B>
for a 60% exponential curve,
<B>exp70</B>
for a 70% exponential curve,
<B>exp80</B>
for a 80% exponential curve,
<B>exp90</B>
for a 90% exponential curve,
<B>exp</B>
for a pure exponential curve,
<B>linear</B>
for a linear curve.
