DESCRIPTION
The package img::tiff is a sub-package of Img. It can be loaded as a part of the complete Img sup-port, support,
port, via package require Img, or on its own, via package require img::tiff.
Like all packages of Img it does not provide new commands, but extends the existing Tk command image
so that it supports files containing raster images in the Tagged Image File Format (tiff). More
specifically img::tiff extends Tk's photo image type.
The name of the new format handler is tiff. This handler provides new additional configuration
options. See section TIFF OPTIONS for more detailed explanations.
All of the above means that in a call like
image create photo ?name? ?options?
[1] Image data in tiff format (options -data and -file) is detected automatically.
[2] The format name tiff is recognized by the option -format. In addition the value for the
option is treated as list and may contain any of the special options listed in section TIFF
OPTIONS.
TIFF OPTIONS
The handler provides two options to influence the writing of a TIFF image. There are no options to
influence the reader.
-compression type
This option specifies the type of compression to use when writing TIFF data. It has to be one
of none, jpeg, packbits, or deflate. The default is none.
-byteorder type
This option specifies the byteorder to use when writing TIFF data. It has to be one of bigen-dian, bigendian,
dian, littleendian, network, smallendian, or the empty string. The default is the empty
string.
The values bigendian and network are aliases of each other, as are littleendian and smallen-dian. smallendian.
