[comp.graphics] TIFF format

eric@pyuxp.UUCP (Eric Wilson) (12/01/87)

Can anyone tell me where I can find information on the
format of a TIFF graphics file? 

I'm also interested in PC Paintbrush and MS Paint formats,
and any information regarding those would also be appreciated.

Please mail any responses.

Could someone please E-Mail me the TIFF format documentation.  I am trying
to move some files between different machines and need to know how the
format is implemented.

Thanks in advance.

	Ok this query has probably been posted before and for this I apologise.
At Concordia, we have suddenly developed a great need to convert a TIFF file
to an ASCII format...(the line of work is OCR...)... any information...
ie. TIFF format or even an algorithm to convert to ascii would be appreciated.
The TIFF file has been created by using the Logitech hand scanner along
with PC Paintbrush...(if that helps?? :-))

Could someone please tell me where to find the TIFF 5.0
documentation ? 

jjp@mruxb.UUCP (James J Power) (11/09/90)

Can anyone give me a reference on the TIFF format file 
structure.  I am generating 256 bit gray scale images
from my HP scanner on my MAC. I am saving them in a
TIFF format. I would like to write a C program to process
and display them. I can not find any explanation of what
a TIFF file is.

Are there any public domain (free) software for the MAC
or DOS machine available???

Thanks in advance

 Try the simtel20 archives file PD2:<MSDOS2.TIFF>TIFF-50.ARC. This
should be what you are looking for.
