- I surprised somebody hasn't mentioned Sam Leffler's tiff libraries. Does
- fax, lzw, etc. Here is the HOWTO file that talks about where to get it.

- How To Obtain This Software (in case all you get is this file)
-
- The software is available for public ftp on
- sgi.com graphics/tiff/v3.0.tar.Z
- (192.48.153.1)
- ucbvax.berkeley.edu pub/tiff/v3.0.tar.Z
- (128.32.130.12)
-
- For example,
- ftp -n sgi.com
- ....
- user anonymous
- ... <type in password>
- cd graphics/tiff
- binary
- get v3.0.tar.Z
-
- The software comes in a compressed tar file. To extract the
- information:
- zcat v3.0.tar.Z | tar xf -
- (uncompress and extract individual files in current directory).
-
- There is also a companion compressed tar file, v3.0pics.tar.Z
- that has sample TIFF image files. These are mostly useful in
- testing the software if/when you port it to an unsupported system.
