NAME
       img-tiff - Img, Tagged Image File Format (tiff)


SYNOPSIS
       package require Tk

       package require img::tiff  ?1.4?

       image create photo ?name? ?options?

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


DESCRIPTION
       package require img::tiff.

       Like  all  packages of Img it does not provide new commands, but extends the existing Tk command image so
       that it supports files containing raster images in the Tagged Image File Format (tiff). More specifically
       img::tiff extends Tk's photo image type.

       The name of the new format handler is tiff.

       The package img::tiff is a sub-package of Img. It can be loaded as a part of the  complete  Img  support,
       via package require Img, or on its own, via package require img::tiff.

       This  handler  provides  new additional configuration options. See section TIFF OPTIONS for more detailed
       explanations.

       All of the above means that in a call like

       image create photo ?name? ?options?

       [1]    Image data in tiff format (options -data and -file) is detected automatically.

       [2]    The format name tiff is recognized by the option -format.  In addition the value for the option is
              treated as list and may contain any of the special options listed in section TIFF OPTIONS.


TIFF OPTIONS
       The handler provides the following options:

       -index n
              This option is for reading from TIFF files containing more than one image (multi-page TIFF).  When
              specified  it will read the n'th image in the data. The first image is at index 0 and will be read
              by default, i.e. when the option is not specified.

       -compression string
              This option specifies the type of compression to use when writing TIFF data. It has to be  one  of
              none, jpeg, packbits, or deflate. The default is none.

       -byteorder string
              This  option specifies the byteorder to use when writing TIFF data. It has to be one of bigendian,
              littleendian, network, smallendian, or the empty string. The default is the empty string.

              The values bigendian and network are aliases of each other, as are littleendian and smallendian.
