Tools Overview</font></h1>
|
|
<p>This software distribution comes with a small collection of
|
|
programs for converting non-TIFF format images to TIFF and for
|
|
manipulating and interrogating the contents of TIFF images. Several
|
|
of these tools are useful in their own right. Many of them however
|
|
are more intended to serve as programming examples for using the
|
|
TIFF library.</p>
|
|
<h3>Device-dependent Programs</h3>
|
|
There are two device-dependent programs that serve as simple
|
|
examples for writing programs to display and save TIFF images.

<tt><a href="man/tiffgt.1.html">tiffgt</a> </tt></td>

<h3>Device-independent Programs</h3>
|
|
The remaining programs should be device-independent:
