+.SH NAME
+bmp2tiff \- create a
+.SM TIFF
+file from a Microsoft Windows Device Independent Bitmap image file
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B bmp2tiff
+[
+.I options
+]
+.I input.bmp
+[
+.I input2.bmp ...\&
+]
+.I output.tiff
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I bmp2tiff
+converts a Microsoft Windows Device Independent Bitmap image file to
+.SM TIFF.
+If several input BMP files are being specified the multipage
+.SM TIFF
+output file will be created. By default, the
+.SM TIFF
+image is created with data samples packed (\c
+.IR PlanarConfiguration =1),
+compressed with the PackBits algorithm (\c
+.IR Compression =32773),
+and with each strip no more than 8 kilobytes.
+These characteristics can overridden, or explicitly specified
+with the options described below.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B \-c
+Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data:
+.B "\-c none"
+for no compression,
+.B "\-c packbits"
+for the PackBits compression algorithm (the default),
+.B "\-c jpeg"
+for the baseline JPEG compression algorithm,
+.B "\-c zip"
+for the Deflate compression algorithm,
+and
+.B "\-c lzw"
+for Lempel-Ziv & Welch.
+.TP
+.BI \-r " number"
+Write data with a specified number of rows per strip;
+by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip
+is approximately 8 kilobytes.
