This file format is suitable for archiving multi-color and monochromatic image data.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The library supports several compression algorithms, as indicated by the <i>Compression</i> field, including: no compression (1), <small>CCITT</small> 1D Huffman compression (2), <small>CCITT</small> Group 3 Facsimile compression (3), <small>CCITT</small> Group 4 Facsimile compression (4), Lempel-Ziv & Welch compression (5), baseline JPEG compression (7), word-aligned 1D Huffman compression (32771), and PackBits compression (32773). In addition, several nonstandard compression algorithms are supported: the 4-bit compression algorithm used by the <i>ThunderScan</i> program (32809) (decompression only), NeXT’s 2-bit compression algorithm (32766) (decompression only), an experimental LZ-style algorithm known as Deflate (32946), and an experimental CIE LogLuv compression scheme designed for images with high dynamic range (32845 for LogL and 32845 for LogLuv). Directory information may be in either little- or big-endian byte order−byte swapping is automatically done by the library. Data bit ordering may be either Most Significant Bit ( <small>MSB) to Least Significant Bit ( <small>LSB) or</small> LSB</small> to <small>MSB.</small> Finally, the library does not support files in which the <i>BitsPerSample</i>, <i>Compression</i>, <i>MinSampleValue</i>, or <i>MaxSampleValue</i> fields are defined differently on a per-sample basis (in Rev. 6.0 the <i>Compression</i> tag is not defined on a per-sample basis, so this is immaterial).</p> <h2>DATA TYPES <a name="DATA TYPES"></a> </h2> <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The library makes extensive use of C typedefs to promote portability. Two sets of typedefs are used, one for communication with clients of the library and one for internal data structures and parsing of the <small>TIFF</small> format. The following typedefs are exposed to users either through function definitions or through parameters passed through the varargs interfaces.</p> <table width="100%" border="0" rules="none" frame="void" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef unsigned short uint16_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>16-bit unsigned integer</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef unsigned <<i>thing</i>> uint32_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>32-bit unsigned integer</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef unsigned int ttag_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>directory tag</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef uint16_t tdir_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>directory index</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef uint16_t tsample_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>sample number</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef uint32_t tstrip_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>strip number</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef uint32_t ttile_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>tile number</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef int32_t tsize_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>i/o size in bytes</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef void* tdata_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>image data ref</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef void* thandle_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>client data handle</p></td></tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="18%"></td> <td width="40%"> <p>typedef int32_t toff_t;</p></td> <td width="42%"> <p>file offset</p></td></tr> </table> <p style="margin-left:11%;">Note that <i>tstrip_t</i>, <i>ttile_t</i>, and <i>tsize_t</i> are constrained to be no more than 32-bit quantities by 32-bit fields they are stored in in the <small>TIFF</small> image. Likewise <i>tsample_t</i> is limited by the 16-bit field used to store the <i>SamplesPerPixel</i> tag. <i>tdir_t</i> constrains the maximum number of <small>IFDs</small> that may appear in an image and may be an arbitrary size (w/o penalty). <i>ttag_t</i> must be either int, unsigned int, pointer, or double because the library uses a varargs interface and <small>ANSI C</small> restricts the type of the parameter before an ellipsis to be a promoted type. <i>toff_t</i> is defined as int32_t because TIFF file offsets are (unsigned) 32-bit quantities. A signed value is used because some interfaces return −1 on error. Finally, note that user-specified data references are passed as opaque handles and only cast at the lowest layers where their type is presumed.</p> <h2>LIST OF ROUTINES <a name="LIST OF ROUTINES"></a> </h2> <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The following routines are part of the library.

Possible values (independent bits that can be combined by or’ing them together) are: FAXMODE_CLASSIC (enable old-style format in which the <small>RTC</small> is written at the end of the last strip), FAXMODE_NORTC (opposite of FAXMODE_CLASSIC; also called FAXMODE_CLASSF), FAXMODE_NOEOL (do not write <small>EOL</small> codes at the start of each row of data), FAXMODE_BYTEALIGN (align each encoded row to an 8-bit boundary), FAXMODE_WORDALIGN (align each encoded row to an 16-bit boundary), The default value is dependent on the compression scheme; this pseudo-tag is used by the various G3 and G4 codecs to share code.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_FAXFILLFUNC</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Control the function used to convert arrays of black and white runs to packed bit arrays. This hook can be used to image decoded scanlines in multi-bit depth rasters (e.g. for display in colormap mode) or for other purposes. The default value is a pointer to a builtin function that images packed bilevel data.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_IPTCNEWSPHOTO</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Tag contains image metadata per the IPTC newsphoto spec: Headline, captioning, credit, etc... Used by most wire services.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_PHOTOSHOP</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Tag contains Photoshop captioning information and metadata. Photoshop uses in parallel and redundantly alongside IPTCNEWSPHOTO information.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_JPEGQUALITY</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Control the compression quality level used in the baseline algorithm. Note that quality levels are in the range 0-100 with a default value of 75.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_JPEGCOLORMODE</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Control whether or not conversion is done between RGB and YCbCr colorspaces. Possible values are: JPEGCOLORMODE_RAW (do not convert), and JPEGCOLORMODE_RGB (convert to/from RGB) The default value is JPEGCOLORMODE_RAW.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_JPEGTABLESMODE</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Control the information written in the <i>JPEGTables</i> tag. Possible values (independent bits that can be combined by or’ing them together) are: JPEGTABLESMODE_QUANT (include quantization tables), and JPEGTABLESMODE_HUFF (include Huffman encoding tables). The default value is JPEGTABLESMODE_QUANT|JPEGTABLESMODE_HUFF.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_ZIPQUALITY</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Control the compression technique used by the Deflate codec. Quality levels are in the range 1-9 with larger numbers yielding better compression at the cost of more computation. The default quality level is 6 which yields a good time-space tradeoff.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_PIXARLOGDATAFMT</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Control the format of user data passed <i>in</i> to the PixarLog codec when encoding and passed <i>out</i> from when decoding. Possible values are: PIXARLOGDATAFMT_8BIT for 8-bit unsigned pixels, PIXARLOGDATAFMT_8BITABGR for 8-bit unsigned ABGR-ordered pixels, PIXARLOGDATAFMT_11BITLOG for 11-bit log-encoded raw data, PIXARLOGDATAFMT_12BITPICIO for 12-bit PICIO-compatible data, PIXARLOGDATAFMT_16BIT for 16-bit signed samples, and PIXARLOGDATAFMT_FLOAT for 32-bit IEEE floating point samples.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_PIXARLOGQUALITY</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Control the compression technique used by the PixarLog codec. This value is treated identically to TIFFTAG_ZIPQUALITY; see the above description.</p> <p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>TIFFTAG_SGILOGDATAFMT</b></p> <p style="margin-left:22%;">Control the format of client data passed <i>in</i> to the SGILog codec when encoding and passed <i>out</i> from when decoding. Possible values are: SGILOGDATAFMT_FLTXYZ for converting between LogLuv and 32-bit IEEE floating valued XYZ pixels, SGILOGDATAFMT_16BITLUV for 16-bit encoded Luv pixels, SGILOGDATAFMT_32BITRAW and SGILOGDATAFMT_24BITRAW for no conversion of data, SGILOGDATAFMT_8BITRGB for returning 8-bit RGB data (valid only when decoding LogLuv-encoded data), SGILOGDATAFMT_FLTY for converting between LogL and 32-bit IEEE floating valued Y pixels, SGILOGDATAFMT_16BITL for 16-bit encoded L pixels, and SGILOGDATAFMT_8BITGRY for returning 8-bit greyscale data (valid only when decoding LogL-encoded data).</p> <h2>DIAGNOSTICS <a name="DIAGNOSTICS"></a> </h2> <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">All error messages are directed through the <i>TIFFError</i> routine.
