BUILDING a tiff file
Hello,
I'm currently working on a project, which takes a software's output file, which contains alot of details pertaining to setup, and at the end is raw image data. Well thus far i am able to pull the data out, as-well-as pull the 16bit image, down convert it to 8bit and build a BMP file with the image. Now i need to output in TIFF format (to keep with current formats around here) as wells as an ANI-GIF file (to do batch pictures into movie). Any tiff documentation i read is WILDLY complicated as-well-as and gif info. No straight forward way to construct headers, file data, etc. I'm not looking to compress, or otherwise shrink the files. I just want a tiff reader to read it. Does anyone know of some easy way to just dynamicly convert my BMPs to TIF and GIF formats? Or even know of a good sight explaining the construction of such files? PLEASE my brain is fried reading 100+ papers on tiff files.

MotoMan...:
Well, I don't have the exact solution for you, but I do have a suggestion. The Imaging application that comes with most Windows operating systems (Accessories>Imaging) saves files in the tiff format as its default. I am sure there is some easy way that you can create an Imaging Object and use that to open your bmp file and save it to a tiff file. It is basically the same as when you use MSWord or Excel from within VB 6.0. And if you can't do it by creating an object, you certainly could do it with API. I just can't tell you how to write the code. Maybe some "guru" will come along and help you. Good Luck |

Re: BUILDING a tiff file
