To the best of my informed knowledge Bear River Associates owns TIFF.
I quote in part from a document DEST Corporation sent out a while back.
"The TIFF Library was created initially by Bear River Associates,
Inc., for use in DEST Corporation's Publish Pac application."
	TIFF is a public domain format for storage and exchange of
digital images, but different companies choose to adevertise it a
different times. If you want to talk to DEST, they may be reached at
	DEST Corporation
	1201 Cadillac Court
	Milpitas CA 95035
Tel	(408) 946-7100

I got my TIFF Creation and Access library from them.

If I am wrong, I stand corrected....I was only quoting from an earlier
version of the TIFF docs I got from Aldus.  No harm intended ;-)

A conversion program is needed that converts a file in TIFF
format to an 8-bit per pixel file format suitable for image processing.
Any help would be appreciated.

Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the Tiff standard?

write the developer's desk at:
Aldus Corp.

And while I'm here:

Anyone have any experiences (good or bad) with ASDG's The Art
Department?  Including it's use of TIFF <--> IFF?
Is it only available for the Amiga?

thanks,
