The latest version of 45the TIFF specification is <A HREF=document.html>available on-line</A> 46in several different formats. 47<P> 48Included in this software distribution is a library, libtiff, for 49reading and writing TIFF, a small collection of tools for doing simple 50manipulations of TIFF images on UNIX systems, 51and documentation on the library and 52tools. A small assortment of TIFF-related software for UNIX 53that has been contributed by others is also included. 54 55<P> 56The library, along with associated tool programs, should handle most of 57your needs for reading and writing TIFF images on 32- and 64-bit 58machines. This software can also be used on older 16-bit systems 59though it may require some effort and you may need to leave out some of 60the compression support. 61 62<p> The software was orginally authored and maintained by Sam Leffler. 63While he keeps a fatherly eye on the mailing list, he is no longer 64responsible for day to day maintenance. 65 66<p> Questions should be sent to the TIFF mailing list: <A 67HREF="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</A>, with 68a subscription interface at <a href="http://lists.maptools.org/mailman/listinfo/tiff">http://lists.maptools.org/mailman/listinfo/tiff</a>.<p> 69 70 71<p> The persons responsible for putting up this site and putting together 72versions >= 3.5.1 are 73<A HREF="http://pobox.com/~warmerdam">Frank Warmerdam</A>, <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Andrey Kiselev</a> and Mike Welles.<p> 74 75The following sections are included in this documentation: 76 77<UL> 78<LI><A HREF="support.html">TIFF 6.0 specification coverage</A> 79<LI><A HREF="libtiff.html">Using the TIFF Library</A> 80<LI><A HREF="internals.html">Modifying the TIFF Library</A> 81and <a href="addingtags.html">Adding New Tags</a> 82<LI><A HREF="tools.html">TIFF tools overview</A> 83<LI><A HREF="contrib.html">Contributed software</A> 84<LI><A HREF="document.html">TIFF documentation</A> 85<LI><A HREF="build.html">Building the software distribution</A> 86<LI><A HREF="bugs.html">Bugs, Bugzilla, and the TIFF mailing list</A> 87<LI><A HREF="images.html">Test images</A> 88<LI><A HREF="misc.html">Acknowledgements and copyright issues</A> 89<LI><A HREF="man/index.html">Man Pages</A> 90</UL> 91 92<P> 93<HR> 94<em> 95Last updated $Date: 2005-09-12 13:50:14 $. 96</em> 97 98</BODY> 99<FONT FACE="Arial, Helvetica, Sans"> 100</HTML> 101
