The latest version of the TIFF specification is <a href="document.html">available on-line</a> in several different formats. </p> <p> Included in this software distribution is a library, libtiff, for reading and writing TIFF, a small collection of tools for doing simple manipulations of TIFF images, and documentation on the library and tools. Libtiff is a portable software, it was built and tested on various systems: UNIX flavors (Linux, BSD, Solaris, MacOS X), Windows, and OpenVMS. It should be possible to port libtiff and additional tools on other OSes. </p> <p> The library, along with associated tool programs, should handle most of your needs for reading and writing TIFF images on 32- and 64-bit machines. </p> <p> The software was originally authored and maintained by Sam Leffler but has been maintained by a cast of others since 1999. </p> <p> Questions should be sent to the TIFF mailing list: <a href="mailto:tiff@lists.osgeo.org">tiff@lists.osgeo.org</a>, with a subscription interface at <a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tiff">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tiff</a>. </p> <p> The persons currently actively maintaining and releasing libtiff are Even Rouault and <a href="mailto:bfriesen@GraphicsMagick.org">Bob Friesenhahn</a>. Note from Even Rouault: do not email me personally, especially when asking "when is the next release ?", unless you are willing to pay a LOT of money for my services, and I may even not be interested. </p> <p>Significant maintainers in the past (since the 3.5.1 release) are <a href="http://pobox.com/~warmerdam">Frank Warmerdam</a>, <a href="mailto:dron@ak4719.spb.edu">Andrey Kiselev</a>, Joris Van Damme, and Lee Howard. </p> <p> The following sections are included in this documentation: </p> <ul> <li><a href="support.html">TIFF 6.0 specification coverage</a></li> <li><a href="libtiff.html">Using the TIFF Library</a></li> <li><a href="internals.html">Modifying the TIFF Library</a> and <a href="addingtags.html">Adding New Tags</a></li> <li><a href="tools.html">TIFF tools overview</a></li> <li><a href="contrib.html">Contributed software</a></li> <li><a href="document.html">TIFF documentation</a></li> <li><a href="build.html">Building the software distribution</a></li> <li><a href="bugs.html">Bugs, GitLab issues, and the TIFF mailing list</a></li> <li><a href="images.html">Test images</a></li> <li><a href="misc.html">Acknowledgements and copyright issues</a></li> <li><a href="man/index.html">Man Pages</a></li> </ul> <p> <b>BigTIFF News</b> </p> <ul> <li><a href="BigTIFFProposal.html">BigTIFF project proposal</a> (work is completed!)</li> <li><a href="bigtiffpr.html">Press release: Currently extending LibTiff</a> (work is completed!)</li> </ul> <hr> <p> Last updated 2021-04-16 </p> </body> </html>
