NAME

tiffsplit - split a multi-image into single-image files

SYNOPSIS

tiffsplit src.tif [ prefix ]

DESCRIPTION

tiffsplit takes a multi-directory (page) file and creates one or more single-directory (page) files from it. The output files are given names created by concatenating a prefix, a lexically ordered suffix in the range [aaa-zzz], the suffix .tif (e.g. xaaa.tif, xaab.tif, ..., xzzz.tif). If a prefix is not specified on the command line, the default prefix of x is used.

OPTIONS

None.

BUGS

Only a select set of ``known tags'' is copied when splitting.
