NAME

       img-tiff - Tagged Image File Format (tiff)

SYNOPSIS

       package require img::tiff ?2.0?

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

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 [https://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl9.0/TkCmd/photo.html] image type.

       The name of the new format handler is tiff.  This handler provides new additional configuration  options.
       See section 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 of option -format is treated as a list and may contain any of the special options
       listed in section Options.

       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.
