          Packit 7838c8
          Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/{tif_color.c, tif_getimage.c, tiffio.h}: Added support
          • Packit 7838c8
            for ReferenceBlackWhite tag handling when converted from YCbCr color space as
            Packit 7838c8
            per bug 120.
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/{tif_getimage.c, tif_aux.c}: Read WhitePoint tag from the
          • Packit 7838c8
            file and properly use it for CIE Lab 1976 to RGB transform.
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/{tif_getimage.c, tiffio.h}: Finally resolved problems with
          • Packit 7838c8
            orientation handling. TIFFRGBAImage interface now properly supports all
            Packit 7838c8
            possible orientations, i.e. images will be flipped both in horizontal and
            Packit 7838c8
            vertical directions if required. 'Known bugs' section now removed from the
            Packit 7838c8
            appropriate manual pages.
            Packit 7838c8

            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/{tiffio.h, tif_codec.c}: Added new function
          • Packit 7838c8
            TIFFIsCODECConfigured(), suggested by Ross Finlayson.
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/tif_ojpeg.c: TIFFVGetField() function now can properly extract
          • Packit 7838c8
            the fields from the OJPEG files. Patch supplied by Ross	Finlayson.
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/tif_dir.h: _TIFFFindOrRegisterdInfo declaration replaced
          • Packit 7838c8
            with _TIFFFindOrRegisterFieldInfo as reported by Ross Finlayson.
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: Implemented binary search in _TIFFMergeFieldInfo().
          • Packit 7838c8
            Patch supplied by Ross Finlayson.
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • tif_dirread.c: do not mark all anonymously defined tags to be IGNOREd (as
          • Packit 7838c8
            it was done in 3.6.0).
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/{tiff.h, tif_dirinfo.c}: Added support for IFD (13) datatype,
          • Packit 7838c8
            intruduced in "Adobe PageMaker TIFF Technical Notes".
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/{tif_color.c, tif_getimage.c, tiffio.h}: New color space
          • Packit 7838c8
            conversion code: CIE L*a*b* 1976 images now supported by the TIFFRGBAImage
            Packit 7838c8
            interface. YCbCr to RGB conversion code also moved there and now has
            Packit 7838c8
            publicly available interface. These
            Packit 7838c8
            routines currently used in TIFFRGBAImage interface only and not supported in
            Packit 7838c8
            other libtiff tools yet. So if you want, for example, to convert CIE Lab image
            Packit 7838c8
            into PostScript file you should do it in two steps: chnge colorspace to RGB
            Packit 7838c8
            using tiff2rgba utility abd then process
            Packit 7838c8
            it with the tiff2ps.
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/tif_tile.c: Remove spurious use of "s" (sample) in the
          • Packit 7838c8
            planarconfig_contig case in TIFFComputeTile() as per bug 387
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/tiffiop.h: New macros: TIFFmax and TIFFmin.
          • Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/{tiffio.h, tif_strip.c}: Added TIFFRawStripSize() function
          • Packit 7838c8
            as suggested by Chris Hanson.
            Packit 7838c8
            Packit 7838c8
          • libtiff/{tif_lzw.c, tif_fax3.c}: Proper support for update mode
