The options \-P for page size grouping, \-S for +subdivision into columns and rows and \-e for export mode options that produce +one or more files from each input image. The options \-r, \-s, \-t, \-w control +strip and tile format and sizes while \-B \-L \-c \-f modify the endian addressing +scheme, the compression options, and the bit fill sequence of images as they +are written. +.IP +Those that perform some action on each image that is selected from the input file. +The options include \-R for rotate, \-I for inversion of the photometric +interpretation and/or data values, and \-F to flip (mirror) the image horizontally +or vertically. +.PP + +Functions are applied to the input image(s) in the following order: +cropping, fixed area extraction, zone and region extraction, +inversion, mirroring, rotation. +.PP +Functions are applied to the output image(s) in the following order: +export mode options for grouping zones, regions, or images into +one or more files, +.I or +row and column divisions with output margins, +.I or +page size divisions with page orientation options. +.PP +Finally, strip, tile, byte order, output resolution, and compression options are +applied to all output images. +.PP +The output file(s) may be organized and compressed using a different +algorithm from the input files. +By default, +.I tiffcrop +will copy all the understood tags in a +.SM TIFF +directory of an input file to the associated directory in the output file. +Options can be used to force the resultant image to be written as strips +or tiles of data, respectively. +.PP +.I Tiffcrop +can be used to reorganize the storage characteristics of data +in a file, and to reorganize, extract, rotate, and otherwise +process the image data as specified at the same time whereas +tiffcp does not alter the image data within the file. +.PP +Using the options for selecting individual input images and the +options for exporting images and/or segments defined as zones or +regions of each input image, +.I tiffcrop +can perform the functions of tiffcp and tiffsplit in a single pass +while applying multiple operations to individual selections or images. +.PP +.SH "OPTIONS" +.TP +.B \-h +Display the syntax summary for tiffcrop. +.TP +.B \-v +Report the current version and last modification date for tiffcrop. +.TP +.B \-N odd|even|#,#\-#,#|last +Specify one or more series or range(s) of images within each file to process. +The words +.B odd +or +.B even +may be used to specify all odd or even numbered images counting from one. +Note that internally, TIFF images are numbered from zero rather than one +but since this convention is not obvious to most users, tiffcrop used 1 +to specifiy the first image in a multipage file. The word +.B last +may be used in place of a number in the sequence to indicate the +final image in the file without knowing how many images there are. +Ranges of images may be specified with a dash and multiple sets +can be indicated by joining them in a comma\-separated list. eg. use +.B \-N 1,5\-7,last +to process the 1st, 5th through 7th, and final image in the file. +.TP +.B \-E top|bottom|left|right +Specify the top, bottom, left, or right edge as the reference from +which to calcuate the width and length of crop regions or sequence +of postions for zones. When used with the \-e option for exporting +zones or regions, the reference edge determines how composite images +are arranged. Using \-E left or right causes successive zones or +regions to be merged horizontally whereas using \-E top or bottom +causes successive zones or regions to be arranged vertically. This +option has no effect on export layout when multiple zones or regions +are not being exported to composite images. Edges may be abbreviated +to the first letter. +.TP +.B \-e combined|divided|image|multiple|separate +Specify the export mode for images and selections from input images. +The final filename on the command line is considered to be the +destination file or filename stem for automatically generated +sequences of files.

The first and third values represent the horizontal offsets of +the corner points from the left edge while the second and fourth values represent +the vertical offsets from the top edge. +.TP +.B \-F horiz|vert +Flip, ie mirror, the image or extracted region horizontally or vertically. +.TP +.B \-R 90|180|270 +Rotate the image or extracted region 90, 180, or 270 degrees clockwise. +.TP +.B \\-I [black|white|data|both] +Invert color space, eg dark to light for bilevel and grayscale images. +This can be used to modify negative images to positive or to correct +images that have the PHOTOMETRIC_INTERPRETATIN tag set incorrectly. +If the value is black or white, the PHOTOMETRIC_INTERPRETATION tag is set to +MinIsBlack or MinIsWhite, without altering the image data. If the argument +is data or both, the data values of the image are modified. Specifying both +inverts the data and the PHOTOMETRIC_INTERPRETATION tag, whereas using data +inverts the data but not the PHOTOMETRIC_INTERPRETATION tag. +No support for modifying the color space of color images in this release. +.TP +.B \-H # +Set the horizontal resolution of output images to # +expressed in the current units. +.TP +.B \-V # +Set the vertical resolution of the output images to # +expressed in the current units. +.TP +.B \-J # +Set the horizontal margin of an output page size to # +expressed in the current units when sectioning image into columns x rows +subimages using the \-S cols:rows option. +.TP +.B \-K # +Set the vertical margin of an output page size to # +expressed in the current units when sectioning image into columns x rows +submiages using the \-S cols:rows option. +.TP +.B \-O portrait|landscape|auto +Set the output orientation of the pages or sections. +Auto will use the arrangement that requires the fewest pages. +This option is only meaningful in conjunction with the -P +option to format an image to fit on a specific paper size. +.TP +.B \-P page +Format the output images to fit on page size paper. Use +\-P list to show the supported page sizes and dimensions. +You can define a custom page size by entering the width and length of the +page in the current units with the following format #.#x#.#. +.TP +.B \-S cols:rows +Divide each image into cols across and rows down equal sections. +.TP +.B \-B +Force output to be written with Big\-Endian byte order. +This option only has an effect when the output file is created or +overwritten and not when it is appended to. +.TP +.B \-C +Suppress the use of ``strip chopping'' when reading images +that have a single strip/tile of uncompressed data. +.TP +.B \-c +Specify the compression to use for data written to the output file: +.B none +for no compression, +.B packbits +for PackBits compression, +.B lzw +for Lempel\-Ziv & Welch compression, +.B jpeg +for baseline JPEG compression. +.B zip +for Deflate compression, +.B g3 +for CCITT Group 3 (T.4) compression, +and +.B g4 +for CCITT Group 4 (T.6) compression. +By default +.I tiffcrop +will compress data according to the value of the +.I Compression +tag found in the source file. +.IP +The +.SM CCITT +Group 3 and Group 4 compression algorithms can only +be used with bilevel data. +.IP +Group 3 compression can be specified together with several +T.4\-specific options: +.B 1d +for 1\-dimensional encoding, +.B 2d +for 2\-dimensional encoding, +and +.B fill +to force each encoded scanline to be zero\-filled so that the +terminating EOL code lies on a byte boundary. +Group 3\-specific options are specified by appending a ``:''\-separated +list to the ``g3'' option; e.g. +.B "\-c g3:2d:fill" +to get 2D\-encoded data with byte\-aligned EOL codes. +.IP +.SM LZW +compression can be specified together with a +.I predictor +value. +A predictor value of 2 causes +each scanline of the output image to undergo horizontal +differencing before it is encoded; a value +of 1 forces each scanline to be encoded without differencing. +LZW\-specific options are specified by appending a ``:''\-separated +list to the ``lzw'' option; e.g. +.B "\-c lzw:2" +for +.SM LZW +compression with horizontal differencing. +.TP +.B \-f +Specify the bit fill order to use in writing output data. +By default, +.I tiffcrop +will create a new file with the same fill order as the original. +Specifying +.B "\-f lsb2msb" +will force data to be written with the FillOrder tag set to +.SM LSB2MSB, +while +.B "\-f msb2lsb" +will force data to be written with the FillOrder tag set to +.SM MSB2LSB. +.TP +.B \-i +Ignore non\-fatal read errors and continue processing of the input file. +.TP +.B \-l +Specify the length of a tile (in pixels). +.I Tiffcrop +attempts to set the tile dimensions so +that no more than 8 kilobytes of data appear in a tile. +.TP +.B \-L +Force output to be written with Little\-Endian byte order. +This option only has an effect when the output file is created or +overwritten and not when it is appended to. +.TP +.B \-M +Suppress the use of memory\-mapped files when reading images. +.TP +.B \-p +Specify the planar configuration to use in writing image data +that has more than one sample per pixel. +By default, +.I tiffcrop +will create a new file with the same planar configuration as +the original. +Specifying +.B "\-p contig" +will force data to be written with multi\-sample data packed +together, while +.B "\-p separate" +will force samples to be written in separate planes. +.TP +.B \-r +Specify the number of rows (scanlines) in each strip of data +written to the output file. +By default (or when value +.B 0 +is specified), +.I tiffcrop +attempts to set the rows/strip that no more than 8 kilobytes of +data appear in a strip. If you specify the special value +.B \-1 +it will results in infinite number of the rows per strip.

Unlike tiffcp, tiffcrop can read and write tiled images with +bits per sample that are not a multiple of 8 in both interleaved and +separate planar format. Floating point data types are supported at +bit depts of 16, 24, 32 and 64 bits per sample. +.PP +Not all images can be converted from one compression scheme to another. +Data with some photometric interpretations and/or bit depths are tied to +specific compression schemes and vice-versa, e.g. Group 3/4 compression +is only usable for bilevel data. JPEG compression is only useable on 8 +bit per sample data (or 12 bit if +.I LibTIFF +was compiled with 12 bit JPEG support). Support for OJPEG compressed +images is problematic at best. Since OJPEG compression is no longer +supported for writing images with LibTIFF, these images will be updated +to the newer JPEG compression when they are copied or processed. This +may cause the image to appear color shifted or distorted after conversion. +In some cases, it is possible to remove the original compression from +image data using the option -cnone. +.PP +Tiffcrop does not currently provide options to up or downsample data to +different bit depths or convert data from one photometric interpretation +to another, e.g. 16 bits per sample to 8 bits per sample or RGB to grayscale. +.PP +Tiffcrop is very loosely derived from code in +.I tiffcp +with extensive modifications and additions to support the selection of input +images and regions and the exporting of them to one or more output files in +various groupings. The image manipulation routines are entirely new and +additional ones may be added in the future. It will handle tiled images with +bit depths that are not a multiple of eight that tiffcp may refuse to read. +.PP +.I Tiffcrop +was designed to handle large files containing many moderate sized images +with memory usage that is independent of the number of images in the file. +In order to support compression modes that are not based on individual +scanlines, e.g. JPEG, it now reads images by strip or tile rather than by +indvidual scanlines. In addition to the memory required by the input and +output buffers associated with +.I LibTIFF +one or more buffers at least as large as the largest image to be read are +required. The design favors large volume document processing uses over +scientific or graphical manipulation of large datasets as might be found +in research or remote sensing scenarios. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR pal2rgb (1), +.BR tiffinfo (1), +.BR tiffcmp (1), +.BR tiffcp (1), +.BR tiffmedian (1), +.BR tiffsplit (1), +.BR libtiff (3TIFF) +.PP +Libtiff library home page: +.BR http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/ + -- cgit v1.2.3
