gif2tiff - create a TIFF file from a GIF87 format image file SYNOPSIS
gif2tiff [ options ] input.gif output.tif DESCRIPTION
Gif2tiff converts a file in the GIF87 format to TIFF. The TIFF image is created as a palette image, with samples compressed with the Lem- pel-Ziv & Welch algorithm (Compression=5). These characteristics can overridden, or explicitly specified with the options described below. OPTIONS
-c Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data: -c none for no compression, -c packbits for the PackBits compression algorithm, -c zip for the Deflate compression algorithm, and -c lzw for Lempel-Ziv & Welch (the default). -r Write data with a specified number of rows per strip; by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip is approxi- mately 8 kilobytes. NOTES
The program is based on Paul Haeberli's fromgif program which, in turn, is based on Marcel J.E. Mol's GIF reader. BUGS
Should have more options to control output format. SEE ALSO

gif2tiff [options] input.gif output.tif DESCRIPTION
gif2tiff converts a file in the GIF87 format to TIFF. The TIFF image is created as a palette image, with samples compressed with the Lem- pel-Ziv and Welch algorithm (Compression=5). These characteristics can be overridden or explicitly specified with the options described below. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -c Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data: -c lzw Lempel-Ziv and Welch algorithm. This is the default algorithm. -c none No compression. -c packbits PackBits compression algorithm. -c zip Deflate compression algorithm. -r Write data with a specified number of rows per strip. By default, the number of rows per strip is selected so that each strip is approximately 8 kilobytes. OPERANDS
The following operands are supported: input.gif The name of the input file that contains GIF87 data. output.tif The name of the output file that contains TIFF data. ATTRIBUTES
