+
+TIFF CHANGE INFORMATION
+
+
+
+
+
+This document describes the changes made to the software between the
+previous and current versions (see above).
+If you don't find something listed here, then it was not done in this
+timeframe, or it was not considered important enough to be mentioned.
+The following information is located here:
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:
+
+
+- support was added for configuring the Deflate codec
+
- support was added for the HTML documentation
+
- codecs that are not configured for inclusion in the library
+ are no longer compiled
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN LIBTIFF:
+
+
+- support was added for registering new codecs external to the library
+ and for overriding the codecs that are builtin to the library
+
- emulation support for the old DataType tag was improved
+
- suppport was added for the SMinSampleValue
+ and SMaxSampleValue tags
+
- the library no longer ignores TileWidth and TileLength
+ tags whose values are not a multiple of 16 (per the spec); this
+ permits old, improperly written, images to be read
+
- the support for the Predictor tag was placed in a reusable
+ module so that it can be shared by multiple codecs
+
- experimental compression support was added for the Deflate algorithm
+ (using the freely available zlib package)
+
- a new routine, TIFFWriteBufferSetup was added a la the
+ routine TIFFReadBufferSetup
+
- the DSO version of the library is now statically linked with the
+ JPEG and Deflate libraries; this means applications that link against
+ the DSO do not also need to link against these ancillary libraries
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE TOOLS:
+
+
+- all the tools now use common code to process compress-oriented arguments
+
- tiffdump should now compile on a Macintosh with MPW
+
+
+
+

+
+
+- everything was updated
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE DOCUMENTATION:

+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN CONTRIBUTED SOFTWARE:
