NAME
tiffdump - print verbatim information about TIFF files
SYNOPSIS
tiffdump [ options ] name …
DESCRIPTION
tiffdump displays directory information from files created according to
the Tag Image File Format, Revision 6.0. The header of each TIFF file
(magic number, version, and first directory offset) is displayed, fol-
lowed by the tag contents of each directory in the file. For each tag,
the name, data type, count, and value(s) is displayed. When the sym-
bolic name for a tag or data type is known, the symbolic name is dis-
played followed by it's numeric (decimal) value. Tag values are dis-
played enclosed in <> characters immediately preceded by the value of
the count field. For example, an ImageWidth tag might be displayed as
ImageWidth (256) SHORT (3) 1<800>.
tiffdump is particularly useful for investigating the contents of TIFF
files that libtiff does not understand.
OPTIONS
-h Force numeric data to be printed in hexadecimal rather than the
default decimal.
-m items

default, this will be 24.
-o offset
Dump the contents of the IFD at the a particular file offset.
The file offset may be specified using the usual C-style syntax;
i.e. a leading 0x for hexadecimal and a leading 0 for octal.
