libtiff - introduction to libtiff, a library for reading and writing TIFF files
#include <tiffio.h>
cc file.c -ltiff
libtiff is a library for reading and writing data files encoded with the "Tag Image File" format, Revision 6.0 (or revision 5.0 or revision 4.0). This file format is suitable for archiving multi-color and monochromatic image data.
The library supports several compression algorithms, as indicated by the Compression field, including: no compression (1), CCITT 1D Huffman compression (2), CCITT Group 3 Facsimile compression (3), CCITT Group 4 Facsimile compression (4), Lempel-Ziv & Welch compression (5), baseline JPEG compression (7), word-aligned 1D Huffman compression (32771), PackBits compression (32773). In addition, several nonstandard compression algorithms are supported: the 4-bit compression algorithm used by the ThunderScan program (32809) (decompression only), NeXT's 2-bit compression algorithm (32766) (decompression only), an experimental LZ-style algorithm known as Deflate (32946), and an experimental CIE LogLuv compression scheme designed for images with high dynamic range (32845 for LogL and 32845 for LogLuv). Directory information may be in either little- or big-endian byte order; byte swapping is automatically done by the library. Data bit ordering may be either Most Significant Bit (MSB) to Least Significant Bit (LSB) or LSB to MSB. Finally, the library does not support files in which the BitsPerSample , Compression , MinSampleValue , or MaxSampleValue fields are defined differently on a per-sample basis (in Rev. 6.0 the Compression tag is not defined on a per-sample basis, so this is immaterial).
The library makes extensive use of C typedefs to promote portability. Two sets of typedefs are used, one for communication with clients of the library and one for internal data structures and parsing of the TIFF format. The following typedefs are exposed to users either through function definitions or through parameters passed through the varargs interfaces.
typedef uint32_t ttag_t; // directory tag typedef uint32_t tdir_t; // directory index typedef uint16_t tsample_t; // sample number typedef uint32_t tstrip_t; // strip number typedef uint32_t ttile_t; // tile number typedef int64_t tmsize_t; // signed size type (int32_t on 32-bit platforms) typedef tmsize_t tsize_t; // i/o size in bytes typedef void* tdata_t; // image data ref typedef void* thandle_t; // client data handle typedef uint64_t toff_t; // file offset
Note that tstrip_t, ttile_t, and tsize_t are constrained to be no more than 32-bit quantities by 32-bit fields they are stored in in the TIFF image. Likewise tsample_t is limited by the 16-bit field used to store the SamplesPerPixel tag.
tdir_t constrains the maximum number of IFDs that may appear in an image and may be an arbitrary size (w/o penalty). Starting with libtiff 4.5.0, tdir_t is a 32-bit unsigned integer. Previously, it was a 16-bit unsigned integer.
ttag_t must be either int, unsigned int, pointer, or double because the library uses a varargs interface and C restricts the type of the parameter before an ellipsis to be a promoted type. toff_t is defined as uint64_t because TIFF file offsets are (unsigned) 32-bit quantities, and BigTIFF file offsets are unsigned 64-bit quantities. A signed value is used because some interfaces return -1 on error. Finally, note that user-specified data references are passed as opaque handles and only cast at the lowest layers where their type is presumed.
The following routines are part of the library. Consult specific manual pages for details on their operation; on most systems doing man function-name will work.

The table below lists the TIFF tags that are recognized and handled by the library. If no use is indicated in the table, then the library reads and writes the tag, but does not use it internally. Note that some tags are meaningful only when a particular compression scheme is being used; e.g. Group3Options is only useful if Compression is set to CCITT Group 3 encoding. Tags of this sort are considered codec-specific tags and the library does not recognize them except when the Compression tag has been previously set to the relevant compression scheme.
