It basically allows one to use the /flateDecode -filter for ZIP compressed TIFF images. -.TP -.B \-a -Generate output for all IFDs (pages) in the input file. -.TP -.B \-b -Specify the bottom margin for the output (in inches). This does not affect -the height of the printed image. -.TP -.B \-c -Center the image in the output. This option only shows an effect if both -the -.B \-w -and the -.B \-h -option are given. -.TP -.B \-d -Set the initial -.SM TIFF -directory to the specified directory number. -(NB: Directories are numbered starting at zero.) -This option is useful for selecting individual pages in a -multi-page (e.g. facsimile) file. -.TP -.B \-e -Force the generation of Encapsulated \*(Ps (implies -.BR \-z ). -.TP -.B \-h -Specify the vertical size of the printed area (in inches). -.TP -.B \-H -Specify the maximum height of image (in inches). Images with larger sizes will -be split in several pages. Option -.B \-L -may be used for specifying size of split images overlapping. -.TP -.B \-W -Specify the maximum width of image (in inches). Images with larger sizes will -be split in several pages. Options -.B \-L -and -.B \-W -are mutually exclusive. -.B \-i -Enable/disable pixel interpolation. This option requires a -single numeric value: zero to disable pixel interpolation and -non-zero to enable. The default is enabled. -.TP -.B \-L -Specify the size of overlapping for split images (in inches). Used in -conjunction with -.B \-H -option. -.TP -.B \-l -Specify the left margin for the output (in inches). This does not affect -the width of the printed image. -.TP -.B \-m -Where possible render using the -.I imagemask -\*(Ps operator instead of the -.I image -operator. When this option is specified -.I tiff2ps -will use -.I imagemask -for rendering 1 bit deep images. If this option is not specified -or if the image depth is greater than 1 then the -.I image -operator is used. -.TP -.B \-o -Set the initial -.SM TIFF -directory to the -.SM IFD -at the specified file offset. -This option is useful for selecting thumbnail images and the -like which are hidden using the -.I SubIFD -tag. -.TP -.B \-p -Force the generation of (non-Encapsulated) \*(Ps. -.TP -.B \-r -Rotate image by 180 degrees. -.TP -.B \-s -Generate output for a single IFD (page) in the input file. -.TP -.B \-w -Specify the horizontal size of the printed area (in inches). -.TP -.B \-x -Override resolution units specified in the TIFF as centimeters. -.TP -.B \-y -Override resolution units specified in the TIFF as inches. -.TP -.B \-z -When generating \*(Ps Level 2, data is scaled so that it does not -image into the -.I deadzone -on a page (the outer margin that the printing device is unable to mark). -This option suppresses this behavior. -When \*(Ps Level 1 is generated, data is imaged to the entire printed -page and this option has no affect. -.SH EXAMPLES -The following generates \*(Ps Level 2 for all pages of a facsimile: -.RS -.nf -tiff2ps \-a2 fax.tif | lpr -.fi -.RE -Note also that if you have version 2.6.1 or newer of Ghostscript then you -can efficiently preview facsimile generated with the above command. -.PP -To generate Encapsulated \*(Ps for a the image at directory 2 -of an image use: -.RS -.nf -tiff2ps \-d 1 foo.tif -.fi -.RE -(Notice that directories are numbered starting at zero.) -.PP -If you have a long image, it may be split in several pages: -.RS -.nf -tiff2ps \-h11 \-w8.5 \-H14 \-L.5 foo.tif > foo.ps -.fi -.RE -The page size is set to 8.5x11 by -.B \-w -and -.B \-h -options. We will accept a small amount of vertical compression, so -.B \-H -set to 14. Any pages between 11 and 14 inches will be fit onto one page. -Pages longer than 14 inches are cut off at 11 and continued on the next -page. The -.B \-L.5 -option says to repeat a half inch on the next page (to improve readability). -.SH BUGS -Because \*(Ps does not support the notion of a colormap, -8-bit palette images produce 24-bit \*(Ps images. -This conversion results in output that is six times -bigger than the original image and which takes a long time -to send to a printer over a serial line. -Matters are even worse for 4-, 2-, and 1-bit palette images. -.PP -Does not handle tiled images when generating \*(Ps Level I output. -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.BR pal2rgb (1), -.BR tiffinfo (1), -.BR tiffcp (1), -.BR tiffgt (1), -.BR tiffmedian (1), -.BR tiff2bw (1), -.BR tiffsv (1), -.BR libtiff (3) -.PP -Libtiff library home page: -.BR http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/ |
