<p><i>tiffcrop</i> combines one or more files created
according to the Tag Image File Format, Revision 6.0 into a
single <small>TIFF</small> file. The output file may be
compressed using a different algorithm than the input files.
<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
image into smaller sections.</p>

<p>By default, <i>tiffcrop</i> will copy all the understood
tags in a <small>TIFF</small> 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.</p>
<!-- INDENTATION -->
<p><i>tiffcrop</i> 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 itself.</p>

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
