<UL>
|
|
|
86 |
|
|
|
87 |
<li> libtiff/{tif_color.c, tif_getimage.c, tiffio.h}: Added support
|
|
|
88 |
for ReferenceBlackWhite tag handling when converted from YCbCr color space as
|
|
|
89 |
per bug 120.
|
|
|
90 |
|
|
|
91 |
<li> libtiff/{tif_getimage.c, tif_aux.c}: Read WhitePoint tag from the
|
|
|
92 |
file and properly use it for CIE Lab 1976 to RGB transform.
|
|
|
93 |
|
|
|
94 |
<li> libtiff/{tif_getimage.c, tiffio.h}: Finally resolved problems with
|
|
|
95 |
orientation handling. TIFFRGBAImage interface now properly supports all
|
|
|
96 |
possible orientations, i.e. images will be flipped both in horizontal and
|
|
|
97 |
vertical directions if required. 'Known bugs' section now removed from the
|
|
|
98 |
appropriate manual pages.
|
|
|
99 |
|
|
|
100 |
<li> libtiff/tif_luv.c: Fixed bug in 48-bit to 24-bit conversion routine,
|
|
|
101 |
reported by Antonio Scuri.
|
|
|
102 |
|
|
|
103 |
<li> libtiff/{tiffio.h, tif_codec.c}: Added new function
|
|
|
104 |
TIFFIsCODECConfigured(), suggested by Ross Finlayson.
|
|
|
105 |
|
|
|
106 |
<li> libtiff/tif_ojpeg.c: TIFFVGetField() function now can properly extract
|
|
|
107 |
the fields from the OJPEG files. Patch supplied by Ross Finlayson.
|
|
|
108 |
|
|
|
109 |
<li> libtiff/tif_dir.h: _TIFFFindOrRegisterdInfo declaration replaced
|
|
|
110 |
with _TIFFFindOrRegisterFieldInfo as reported by Ross Finlayson.
|
|
|
111 |
|
|
|
112 |
<li> libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: Implemented binary search in _TIFFMergeFieldInfo().
|
|
|
113 |
Patch supplied by Ross Finlayson.
|
|
|
114 |
|
|
|
115 |
<li> tif_dirread.c: do not mark all anonymously defined tags to be IGNOREd (as
|
|
|
116 |
it was done in 3.6.0).
|
|
|
117 |
|
|
|
118 |
<li> libtiff/{tiff.h, tif_dirinfo.c}: Added support for IFD (13) datatype,
|
|
|
119 |
intruduced in "Adobe PageMaker TIFF Technical Notes".
|
|
|
120 |
|
|
|
121 |
<li> libtiff/{tif_color.c, tif_getimage.c, tiffio.h}: New color space
|
|
|
122 |
conversion code: CIE L*a*b* 1976 images now supported by the TIFFRGBAImage
|
|
|
123 |
interface. YCbCr to RGB conversion code also moved there and now has
|
|
|
124 |
<a href="./man/TIFFcolor.3t.html">publicly available interface</a>. These
|
|
|
125 |
routines currently used in TIFFRGBAImage interface only and not supported in
|
|
|
126 |
other libtiff tools yet. So if you want, for example, to convert CIE Lab image
|
|
|
127 |
into PostScript file you should do it in two steps: chnge colorspace to RGB
|
|
|
128 |
using <a href="./man/tiff2rgba.1.html">tiff2rgba</a> utility abd then process
|
|
|
129 |
it with the <a href="./man/tiff2ps.1.html">tiff2ps</a>.
|
|
|
130 |
|
|
|
131 |
<li> libtiff/tif_tile.c: Remove spurious use of "s" (sample) in the
|
|
|
132 |
planarconfig_contig case in TIFFComputeTile() as per bug 387
|
|
|
133 |
|
|
|
134 |
<li> libtiff/tiffiop.h: New macros: TIFFmax and TIFFmin.
|
|
|
135 |
|
|
|
136 |
<li> libtiff/{tiffio.h, tif_strip.c}: Added TIFFRawStripSize() function
|
|
|
137 |
as suggested by Chris Hanson.
|
|
|
138 |
|
|
|
139 |
<li> libtiff/{tif_lzw.c, tif_fax3.c}: Proper support for update mode
|
|
|
140 |
as per bug 424.

153 |
Ross Finlayson, to directly convert TIFF files to PDF.
|

|
|
155 |
<li> <a href=./man/tiffgt.1.html>tiffgt</a>: Unmaintained and platform

|
156 |
dependent sgigt utility removed and replaced with the completely rewritten
|
|
|
157 |
portable <a href=./man/tiffgt.1.html>tiffgt</a> tool (depend on OpenGL and
|
|
|
158 |
GLUT). This tool will not build by default.
|
|
|
159 |
|
|
|
160 |
<li> <a href=./man/ras2tiff.1.html>ras2tiff</a>: Properly determine
|
|
|
161 |
SUN Rasterfiles with the reverse byte order (it is reported by the magic
|
|
|
162 |
header field). Problem reported by Andreas Wiesmann.
|
|
|
163 |
|
|
|
164 |
<li> <a href=./man/raw2tiff.1.html>raw2tiff</a>: Implemented image size
|

165 |
guessing using correlation coefficient calculation between two neighbour
|
|
|
166 |
lines.
