Introduction to LibTIFF

The LibTIFF package contains the TIFF libraries and associated utilities. The libraries are used by many programs for reading and writing TIFF files and the utilities are useful for general work with TIFF files.

Dependencies

Optional

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make

Install the package

make install

Multilib

32Bit

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD32}" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib" \
    ./configure --prefix=/usr --x-libraries=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib &&
make

Install the package

make install

N32

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILDN32}" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib32" \
    ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib32 \
    --x-libraries=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib32 &&
make

Install the package

make install

64Bit

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD64}" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64" \
    ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 \
    --x-libraries=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib64 &&
make

Install the package

make install

Short Descriptions

bmp2tiff converts a Microsoft Windows Device Independent Bitmap image file to a TIFF image.
fax2ps converts a TIFF facsimile to compressed PostScript file.
fax2tiff creates a TIFF Class F fax file from raw fax data.
gif2tiff creates a TIFF file from a GIF87 format image file.
pal2rgb converts a palette color TIFF image to a full color image.
ppm2tiff creates a TIFF file from a PPM image file.
ras2tiff creates a TIFF file from a Sun rasterfile.
raw2tiff converts a raw byte sequence into TIFF.
rgb2ycbcr converts non-YCbCr TIFF images to YCbCr TIFF images.
thumbnail creates a TIFF file with thumbnail images.
tiff2bw converts a color TIFF image to grayscale.
tiff2pdf converts a TIFF image to a PDF document.
tiff2ps converts a TIFF image to a PostScript file.
tiff2rgba converts a wide variety of TIFF images into an RGBA TIFF image.
tiffcmp compares two TIFF files.
tiffcp copies (and possibly converts) a TIFF file.
tiffdither converts a grayscale image to bilevel using dithering.
tiffdump prints verbatim information about TIFF files.
tiffgt displays an image stored in a TIFF file in an X window.
tiffinfo prints information about TIFF files.
tiffmedian applies the median cut algorithm to data in a TIFF file.
tiffset sets the value of a TIFF header to a specified value.
tiffsplit splits a multi-image TIFF into single-image TIFF files.
libtiff.{so,a} contains the API functions used by the libtiff programs as well as other programs to read and write TIFF files.
libtiffxx.{so,a} contains the C++ API functions used by programs to read and write TIFF files.
