          Packit 85355f
          Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/{tif_color.c, tif_getimage.c, tiffio.h}: Added support
          • Packit 85355f
            for ReferenceBlackWhite tag handling when converted from YCbCr color space as
            Packit 85355f
            per bug 120.
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/{tif_getimage.c, tif_aux.c}: Read WhitePoint tag from the
          • Packit 85355f
            file and properly use it for CIE Lab 1976 to RGB transform.
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/{tif_getimage.c, tiffio.h}: Finally resolved problems with
          • Packit 85355f
            orientation handling. TIFFRGBAImage interface now properly supports all
            Packit 85355f
            possible orientations, i.e. images will be flipped both in horizontal and
            Packit 85355f
            vertical directions if required. 'Known bugs' section now removed from the
            Packit 85355f
            appropriate manual pages.
            Packit 85355f

            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/{tiffio.h, tif_codec.c}: Added new function
          • Packit 85355f
            TIFFIsCODECConfigured(), suggested by Ross Finlayson.
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/tif_ojpeg.c: TIFFVGetField() function now can properly extract
          • Packit 85355f
            the fields from the OJPEG files. Patch supplied by Ross	Finlayson.
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/tif_dir.h: _TIFFFindOrRegisterdInfo declaration replaced
          • Packit 85355f
            with _TIFFFindOrRegisterFieldInfo as reported by Ross Finlayson.
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: Implemented binary search in _TIFFMergeFieldInfo().
          • Packit 85355f
            Patch supplied by Ross Finlayson.
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • tif_dirread.c: do not mark all anonymously defined tags to be IGNOREd (as
          • Packit 85355f
            it was done in 3.6.0).
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/{tiff.h, tif_dirinfo.c}: Added support for IFD (13) datatype,
          • Packit 85355f
            intruduced in "Adobe PageMaker TIFF Technical Notes".
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/{tif_color.c, tif_getimage.c, tiffio.h}: New color space
          • Packit 85355f
            conversion code: CIE L*a*b* 1976 images now supported by the TIFFRGBAImage
            Packit 85355f
            interface. YCbCr to RGB conversion code also moved there and now has
            Packit 85355f
            publicly available interface. These
            Packit 85355f
            routines currently used in TIFFRGBAImage interface only and not supported in
            Packit 85355f
            other libtiff tools yet. So if you want, for example, to convert CIE Lab image
            Packit 85355f
            into PostScript file you should do it in two steps: chnge colorspace to RGB
            Packit 85355f
            using tiff2rgba utility abd then process
            Packit 85355f
            it with the tiff2ps.
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/tif_tile.c: Remove spurious use of "s" (sample) in the
          • Packit 85355f
            planarconfig_contig case in TIFFComputeTile() as per bug 387
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/tiffiop.h: New macros: TIFFmax and TIFFmin.
          • Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/{tiffio.h, tif_strip.c}: Added TIFFRawStripSize() function
          • Packit 85355f
            as suggested by Chris Hanson.
            Packit 85355f
            Packit 85355f
          • libtiff/{tif_lzw.c, tif_fax3.c}: Proper support for update mode
