SUN2STIFF(1)			 Impressario			  SUN2STIFF(1)

NAME
     sun2stiff - convert a Sun Rasterfile image file to Stream TIFF (STIFF)

SYNOPSIS
     sun2stiff [-O filename] [-L filename]
	       [-s] [-h] [-D] [SunRasterFilename ...]

DESCRIPTION
     sun2stiff converts Sun Rasterfile image files into Stream TIFF (STIFF)
     format.

     By default, sun2stiff reads its input image from the standard input,
     writes its output to the standard output and sends messages to standard
     error. If one or more image files are specified on the command line,
     sun2stiff reads input from these files rather than the standard input.

     -O filename
	       Specifies the name of the file to which the STIFF output will
	       be sent.	 If the -O option is not specified, output will be
	       sent to the standard output.

     -L filename
	       Specifies the name of the file to which error, warning and
	       informational messages are to be written. If the file specified
	       already exists, any messages generated by sun2stiff will be
	       appended to the end of the file.	 If the -L option is not
	       specified, message output will be sent to standard error.

     -s	       Normally, 24 and 32-bit deep Sun images order the data as BGR.
	       When the image type code is RT_FORMAT_RGB, the data is ordered
	       RGB. However, Sun images have been encountered that do not
	       follow these rules. In that case the -s option can be used to
	       force the swapping of the Red and Blue image components.

     -h	       Prints a program usage message to the standard error. This
	       usage message also lists the currently supported output
	       configurations.

     -D	       Specifies verbose output for debugging purposes.

NOTES
     1.	  sun2stiff supports the Sun Rasterfile image encoding types RT_OLD
	  (0), RT_STANDARD (1), RT_BYTE_ENCODED (2) and RT_FORMAT_RGB (3).
	  The program does not support embedded TIFF (RT_FORMAT_TIFF (4)),
	  embedded IFF (RT_FORMAT_IFF (5)) or experimental (RT_EXPERIMENTAL
	  (65535)) image encoding types.

     2.	  In order to be processed by sun2stiff, 1-bit deep images that have
	  colormaps must have their colormap type equal to RMT_RAW.

     3.	  If sun2stiff is given an unrecognized or incomplete command line
	  option switch, it will print a warning message to the standard
	  error, ignore the option and continue processing.
