NAME

       tifftopnm - convert a TIFF file into a portable anymap

SYNOPSIS

       tifftopnm [-headerdump] tifffile

DESCRIPTION

       Reads a TIFF file as input.  Produces a portable anymap as output.  The
       type of the output file depends on the input file -  if  it's  black  &
       white, a pbm file is written, else if it's grayscale a pgm file, else a
       ppm file.  The program tells you which type it is writing.

OPTIONS

       -headerdump
              Dump TIFF file information to stderr.  This information  may  be
              useful in debugging TIFF file conversion problems.

       All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.

       Software package listed in the OTHER.SYSTEMS file and configure PBMPLUS
       to  use libtiff.  See PBMPLUS's Makefile for details on this configura-
       tion.
