-.SH NAME

-.SM TIFF
-file

-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.IR TIFFGetField
-returns the value of a tag or pseudo-tag associated with the the current
-directory of the opened
-.SM TIFF
-file
-.IR tif .
-(A
-.I pseudo-tag
-is a parameter that is used to control the operation of the
-.SM TIFF
-library but whose value is not read or written to the underlying file.) The
-file must have been previously opened with
-.IR TIFFOpen (3TIFF).
-The tag is identified by
-.IR tag ,
-one of the values defined in the include file
-.B tiff.h
-(see also the table below). The type and number of values returned is
-dependent on the tag being requested. The programming interface uses a
-variable argument list as prescribed by the
-.IR stdarg (3)
-interface. The returned values should only be interpreted if
-.IR TIFFGetField
-returns 1.
-.PP
-.IR TIFFVGetField
-is functionally equivalent to
-.IR TIFFGetField
-except that it takes a pointer to a variable argument list.
-.I TIFFVGetField
-is useful for layering interfaces on top of the functionality provided by
-.IR TIFFGetField .
-.PP
-.IR TIFFGetFieldDefaulted
-and
-.IR TIFFVGetFieldDefaulted
-are identical to
-.IR TIFFGetField
-and
-.IR TIFFVGetField ,
-except that if a tag is not defined in the current directory and it has a
-default value, then the default value is returned.
-.PP
-The tags understood by
-.IR libtiff(3TIFF),
-the number of parameter values, and the types for the returned values are
-shown below. The data types are specified as in C and correspond to the types
-used to specify tag values to
-.IR TIFFSetField (3TIFF).
-Remember that
-.IR TIFFGetField
-returns parameter values, so all the listed data types are pointers to storage
-where values should be returned.
-Consult the
-.SM TIFF
-specification (or relevant industry specification) for information on the
-meaning of each tag and their possible values.

-\(dd The contents of this field are quite complex. See
-.IR "The ICC Profile Format Specification" ,
-Annex B.3 "Embedding ICC Profiles in TIFF Files" (available at
-http://www.color.org) for an explanation.
-.SH AUTOREGISTERED TAGS
-If you can't find the tag in the table above that means this is an unsupported
-tag and is not directly supported by
-.BR libtiff(3TIFF)
-library. You will still be able to read it's value if you know the data type of
-that tag. For example, if you want to read the LONG value from the tag 33424
-and ASCII string from the tag 36867 you can use the following code:
-.PP
-.RS
-.nf
-uint32 count;
-void *data;
-
-TIFFGetField(tiff, 33424, &count, &data);
-printf("Tag %d: %d, count %d\n", 33424, *(uint32 *)data, count);
-TIFFGetField(tiff, 36867, &count, &data);
-printf("Tag %d: %s, count %d\n", 36867, (char *)data, count);
-.fi
-.RE
-.PP
-.SH RETURN VALUES
-1 is returned if the tag is defined in the current directory; otherwise a 0 is
-returned.
-.SH DIAGNOSTICS
-All error messages are directed to the
-.BR TIFFError (3TIFF)
-routine.
-.PP
-.BR "Unknown field, tag 0x%x" .
-An unknown tag was supplied.
