NAME

       tiffdump - print verbatim information about TIFF files

SYNOPSIS

       tiffdump [ options ] name ...

DESCRIPTION

       tiffdump displays directory information from files created according to the Tag Image File
       Format, Revision 6.0.  The header of each TIFF file  (magic  number,  version,  and  first
       directory  offset)  is  displayed,  followed  by the tag contents of each directory in the
       file.  For each tag, the name, data type, count, and  value(s)  is  displayed.   When  the
       symbolic  name for a tag or data type is known, the symbolic name is displayed followed by
       it's numeric (decimal) value.  Tag values are  displayed  enclosed  in  ``<>''  characters
       immediately  preceded  by  the  value  of the count field.  For example, an ImageWidth tag
       might be displayed as ``ImageWidth (256) SHORT (3) 1<800>''.

       tiffdump is particularly useful for investigating the contents of TIFF files that  libtiff
       does not understand.

OPTIONS

       -h     Force numeric data to be printed in hexadecimal rather than the default decimal.

       -m items
              Change the number of indirect data items that are printed. By default, this will be
              24.

       -o offset
              Dump the contents of the IFD at the a particular file offset.  The file offset  may
              be  specified using the usual C-style syntax; i.e. a leading ``0x'' for hexadecimal
              and a leading ``0'' for octal.
