SYNOPSIS

sfftobmp [options] INFILE1 [INFILE2 ..] [-o OUTSPEC]

OPTIONS

-h or -help Show this message and exit

-v or -version Show version and exit

The OUTSPEC is interpreted as:

- a filename if only one input file is given. - a directory name if more than one input file is given.

If OUTSPEC is omitted, the name of the output files will be derived from the input files and created in the same directory.

Output on stdout is available for multipaged TIFF output only (option "-t"). Use "-" as output filename in this case.

In case of TIFF output, you can specify the compression by using additional specifiers:

-tr resp. -Tr : CCITT modified Huffman RLE

-t4 resp. -T4 : CCITT Fax Class 4 compression

The default is CCITT Fax Class 3 compression.
