+<i>tiffcrop</i> is most often used to extract portions of an
+image for processing with bar code recognizer or OCR
+software when that software cannot restrict the region of
+interest to a specific portion of the image or to improve
+efficiency when the regions of interest must be rotated. It
+can also be used to subdivide all or part of a processed
