.SH NAME
|
|
tiffmedian \- apply the median cut algorithm to data in a
|
|
.SM TIFF
|
|
file
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B tiffmedian
|
|
[
|
|
.I options
|
|
]
|
|
.I input.tif
|
|
.I output.tif
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I tiffmedian
|
|
applies the median cut algorithm to an
|
|
.SM RGB
|
|
image in
|
|
.I input.tif
|
|
to generate a palette image that is written to
|
|
.IR output.tif .
|
|
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.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-c
|
|
Specify the compression to use for data written to the output file:
|
|
.B none
|
|
for no compression,
|
|
.B packbits
|
|
for PackBits compression,
|
|
.B lzw
|
|
for Lempel-Ziv & Welch compression,
|
|
and
|
|
.B zip
|
|
for Deflate compression.
|
|
By default
|
|
.I tiffmedian
|
|
will compress data according to the value of the
|
|
.I Compression
|
|
tag found in the source file.
|
|
.IP
|
|
.SM LZW
|
|
compression can be specified together with a
|
|
.I predictor
|
|
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 ``:''-separated
|
|
list to the ``lzw'' option; e.g.
|
|
.B "\-c lzw:2"
|
|
for
|
|
.SM LZW
|
|
compression with horizontal differencing.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-C
|
|
Specify the number of entries to use in the generated colormap.
|
|
By default all 256 entries/colors are used.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-f
|
|
Apply Floyd-Steinberg dithering before selecting a colormap entry.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-r
|
|
Specify the number of rows (scanlines) in each strip of data
|
|
written to the output file.
|
|
By default,
|
|
.I tiffmedian
|
|
attempts to set the rows/strip
|
|
that no more than 8 kilobytes of data appear in a strip.
|
|
.SH NOTES
